The new Gramophone Podcast features leading pianist Angela Hewitt in conversation with Gramophone’s Editor Martin Cullingford. As she prepares to celebrate her 60th birthday with a performance of the Goldberg Variations at Wigmore Hall, the renowned Bach interpreter reflects on the importance of the composer in her life and career, as well as discussing the latest installment of her Beethoven sonata series on Hyperion Records, and looking ahead to performing Messiaen's Turangalîla-Symphonie at this year's BBC Proms.
