Extractions: At just 22 years old, virtuoso violinist Hilary Hahn's formidable talents already compare to those of the world's finest established players. Making her major orchestral debut as soloist at age 11, she received the Avery Fisher Career Grant at age 15, and just one year later, became one of the youngest artists ever signed to an exclusive contract by Sony Classical. Recently named "America's Best" young classical musician by Time magazine, all five of her recordings have garnered critical praise and high honors, including two Grammy nominations and two Diapason d'Ors. She has made the transition from child prodigy to mature artist with remarkable grace and "her playing speaks from the heart with an intelligence, eloquence, and nobility that places her among the great interpreters of our time," says Strings magazine.

In other words, she kept live performances to a minimum, she stayed in school, and she took the time she needed to figure out how to be a popular performer and a musician on the road.

Extractions: - To Russia with Love (and Hilary Hahn) This article appeared in the March 2005 issue of DoubleReed. St. Petersburg, Russia . It had all the makings of a summer thriller. The Francis Poulenc Trio along with violinist Hilary Hahn toured Russia as featured guest artists at the St. Petersburg Palaces Festival. The festival, set in and around St. Petersburg, takes place during the White Nights - those few weeks in June when the sun sets well after midnight. In its twelfth year, the festival attracts soloists, conductors and ensembles from around the world. The concert took place in the Hermitage Theater. The theater is a beautiful hall of marble columns and plush red velvet, commissioned by Catherine the Great to showcase the great musical talents of her day. Located at the heart of the famed Winter Palace, it was used for centuries as the private theater of the Tsars.

Extractions: I've played this recording again and again since I bought it and love it as much on the 15th hearing as I did on the first. Samuel Barber / Violin Concerto / Hilary Hahn , violin; Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, Hugh Wolff, conductor Edgar Meyer / Violin Concerto / Hilary Hahn , violin; Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, Hugh Wolff, conductor Hahn's playing of the Barber, an American masterpiece composed in 1939, is mesmerizing. My particular favorite is the second movement: a lyrical beauty with a theme that rocks back and forth between C# minor and E major. The third movement is a fiendish perpetuum mobile less than 4 minutes long. The concerto by Edgar Meyer was written especially for Hilary Hahn. Meyer, a virtuoso bassist who has collaborated with cellist Yo-Yo Ma and violinist Mark OConnor on the Appalachia Waltz Appalachian Journey project, has a unique compositional voice a mixture of American fiddling riffs and more "classical" gestures. For my taste, the second movement drags at the beginning with a big dose of minimalist noodling.

Extractions: MUSIC: Hilary Hahn, a 19-year-old star violinist, stops at UCLA's Schoenberg Hall tonight as she continues her international concert tour By Allison Hunter Daily Bruin Contributor Most fairy tales begin with "Once upon a time," but Hilary Hahn's musical career started with "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star." That's what a 4-year-old Hahn heard when she saw a sign offering "music lessons for 4-year-olds" while on a walk around her Baltimore neighborhood with her dad. She decided to check it out. Though Hahn cites musical greats like her former mentor, Jascha Brodsky, as her greatest inspirations, that little boy playing "Twinkle, Twinkle" in that small building in Baltimore was probably her first influence. Hahn, now a world-renowned violinist, will perform tonight in UCLA's Schoenberg Hall, in just one stop on her international tour. Though Hahn began her musical career with "Twinkle, Twinkle," she moved on to bigger and better things. At tonight's concert, she will perform Brahm's Sonatas 1 and 2, Bach's Solo Sonata No. 2 and Debussy's Sonata, accompanied by pianist Natalie Zhu. The UCLA show is Hahn's debut solo performance in Los Angeles, although she has performed in countless cities around the world. Though she doesn't have a favorite city, Hahn said she most enjoys playing in Baltimore, her hometown, and Philadelphia, where she currently lives, because she has a "connection" with the people there. She said she also enjoyed playing in Jerusalem, Italy and Spain.
