April 2009 Releases

New recordings from Angela Hewitt never fail to delight, and Hyperion's record of the month for April 2009 is a treat: ten years after her acclaimed original interpretation, Angela revisits Bach's Well-tempered Clavier in a new recording made as the culmination of her extraordinary Bach World Tour. Jirí Bárta and Hamish Milne give magisterial performances of Rubinstein Cello Sonatas, while Howard Shelley, awarded the OBE in this year's Honours List, presents a third double album of Clementi Piano Sonatas. Stephen Rice and The Brabant Ensemble have found treasures indeed in the Chirk Castle Part-Books—the unique source for works by Mundy, Tallis and more; an altogether shadier side of life is to by found in Lucie Skeaping's exploration of The English Stage Jig with The City Waites—cuckolds and thieves, ye be warned. A new coupling of The King's Consort's seminal Fireworks Music & Water Music recordings marks the anniversary of Handel's death (14 April 1759) and leads off this month's re-issues, completed by Mozart Piano Concertos in their chamber versions and a double album of the pioneering Locatelli's Opus 4.
