Brahms : Concerto pour violon (Hilary Hahn / Orchestre philharmonique de Radio France)

[@leonpetrich5864]

I had the privilege of listening to her play this 2 weeks ago in Cologne. After the performance, she went on to listen to the Schostakovich symphony 5 which was played after. She sat in the row in front of me and only about 6 seats to the right. Not many soloists of that caliber take the time to enjoy the rest of the concert like that.

[@staffanolofsson8201]

Yes, she is one of us, and if I had the opportunity to talk to her I probably would talk about anything else but music.

[@drpemium333]

I see many comments under this video that “something which was already perfect became even better”. Indeed Hilary has always been one of the most preeminent violinists of our times, but she has always continued to grow. And that’s actually unique: when a child prodigy becomes a really Great Musician after >30 years of continuous fame. Honestly I don’t know any other examples of such a resistance towards fame temptation in the present times: several Hilary’s colleagues, also very gifted musicians by nature, swirled in the whirlpool of popularity and did not reach the level of true greatness. But Hilary… having gotten 3 Grammy awards (!!!) and lots of other prizes and “recognition symbols”, having made recordings of almost complete violin repertoire with the best orchestras and best studios in the whole world, always hearing rave reviews of her genius and crowds of fans as if she was a pop/rock star and/or a Hollywood star, having given birth to two daughters in a marriage with her husband and looking now stunningly beautiful, like 25-27 years old (max)… and she’s playing now at completely different level in comparison even with herself 15-20 years ago. I even read in those days that she was called a genius, “the Menuhin and Stern of our day”, etc., but then I could not fully agree with this, to be honest. She was obviously great, but it would be difficult for me then to call her a genius. And now, after this rendition of Brahms, a truly grandiose discovery has happened to me: Hilary Hahn IS indeed one of the greatest musicians of all times. She’s not a child prodigy any more… she’s not the one with purest and most beautiful violin tone any more… she’s not a phenomenal and preeminent master of violin any more… she’s a truly Great violinist and Great Musician, because in her playing one can feel the breath of eternity and immortality. Now it became obvious to me that she is one of those people on whom our fragile world actually rests. THANK YOU! ❤

[@LucienMarine]

Where there is dexterity, the maturity is put in quotes. The particularity of Hilary Hahn is her crystalline game which becomes unstoppable. It's his trademark and therefore the weight of the years will not change anything. This register of Brahms is not his best performance but the one from 2014 with Paavo Järvi on Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra Channel hr-Sinfonieorchester. Listen carefully to the interpretation of the Adagio which is immeasurably limpidity. We do not deceive the listeners with nearly 8 million. The reference is probably here ! *Lucien*

It's not just the perfect intonation, tonal quality, musicality and projection. Just look at her hands to realise that even more than before she has perfected the art of making a beautiful sound with the minimum effort. Any aspiring violinists could watch this for hours to pick up tips about how to get the most exquisite vibrato with such economy of movement. And that's just her left hand. Look at the bow arm to see such mastery of bow control, projection and articulation. She is still up there with the greatest of all time.
