Fans of Angela Hewitt will be delighted to find her in chamber mode, accompanying Andrea Oliva (described as 'one of the best flutists of his generation, a shining star in the world of the flute' by Sir James Galway) in a programme of J S Bach's flute sonatas (including one by his most famous and talented son, CPE). Of unfailingly remarkable quality, all these works exploit the full potential of an instrument which was only just coming into its own when they were written. Oliva's lyricism and agility coupled with Hewitt's musicianship-not to mention her lifelong rapport with Bach's music-make this an album to treasure.
