This is a bit slow, but some of you are commenting as if this Angela Hewitt is the same Angela Hewitt of today. She has gained thirty years of insight in the mean time. Check out her current Chopin recordings on the Hyperion label. They are amazing.
@Huffinearts Please do not make such idiotic remarks; just face it: she is one of the worst disasters in the world of classical music.

This week, Angela Hewitt is playing in her hometown, Ottawa (Canada). This is exciting for Angela and her many fans.

This recording is so beautiful and inspiring.
The tempo isn't really that slow. It is marked as Larghetto ( around mm. 40)
Some editions even say mm. 40 or less.

Something magnificent is happening here, despite the slow tempo. Forget the video. Just close your eyes and listen.
