CLASSIC FM MAGAZINE INSTRUMENTAL DISC OF THE MONTH - 'A compelling Schumann player'
Hybrid/SACD - playable on all compact disc players.
'The clarity of line is a Hewitt hallmark. It is present through the buzzing Allegro vivace, passing from right hand to left and back with seamless fluency, and it soards with the most delicate lightness through the Aria … Hewitt's Scherzo explodes with rhythm … the crushed notes are flashing sparks that might ingnite. The Finale almsot tumbles over itself with key-changes, expression and dynamics, but Hewitt contains all in a lover's embrace … It is as if genius has stepped out of its trance. This is joyful and exuberant play … A compelling Schumann player' (Classic FM Magazine *****)
