Hilary Hahn Rocks!

Hilary Hahn is a brilliant young violinist. She is incredibly musical (not all musicians are musical), and I return to her music on a regular basis for inspiration and energy. Here is a link to her bio on her website.

I recently found a few YouTube videos of Hilary Hahn performances. Until this point, I had heard her music, though I hadn’t seen her perform. Enjoy!:

And here is a bit of a documentary, including Hilary talking about her music:

    I hadn't heard her before, but I have been following the effect she seems to have on men:

    This link is only good thru May 26, 2008, but follow this comic thread forward to see the take of a Juliard alumnus (the artist) on the effects of a Hahn concert on this group of musical young adults.

    Dan: I will confess to you (and to no one else) that I am in love with Hilary Hahn. Seriously, check out the incredible use of left-handed plucking and harmonics on the top video. Unbelievable . . .
