August 2007 sees the start of Angela Hewitt’s Bach World Tour in which she will bring her celebrated performances of The Well-Tempered Clavier to twenty-five countries on six continents. This tour will celebrate the wonderful voyage she began in 1994 when she undertook to record all of Bach’s major keyboard works for Hyperion Records—a project that took eleven years to complete. Concurrently, Hyperion are releasing a limited edition box set of Hewitt’s iconic recordings of ‘The 48’—held by many critics to be the definitive piano version of Bach’s incomparable masterpiece.
