A little off piste compared to my normal IW postings, but on my way home tonight from work, I was listening to BBC Radio 4.  I managed to catch the last few minutes of an interview with Canadian pianist, Angela Hewitt.  Angela was awarded today with one of the most prestigious awards in the classical music industry: Gramophone's Artist of the Year award, awarded for her talent and her 11 year project to record all the major keyboard works of Bach.

What actually caught my attention was how Angela uses technology to emotionally connect with her audience.  With classical music becoming "less popular", Angela turned to technology to help bridge the gap... as well as always signing her albums after concerts etc.  Her high album sales are a testament to this.  Kind of reminds me of Steve's blog on "Stormhoeking" and the The Stormhoek Guide To Wine Blogging.

Congratulations on the award Angela.
