    I was a rock guitarist. At 6 in the morning after a party my friend said "Just listen to this." I said, "Not more classical." He said, "No, just imagine you're playing this on the guitar." I just sat there with my mouth open. I've never been the same since. Thank you, Brahms, for opening the door.

    Great performance by Hahn and great conducting by Putin.
    edit: In all seriousness though, I think that Hilary Hahn interprets Brahms the best. Beyond her phenomenal technical skill to master this tough concerto, she plays with a natural "heaviness" in her bow and vibrato that perfectly suits the richness of Brahms.

      I don't like her dancing and her gestures towards the orchestra (they are totally useless), but I normally don't look at the video, only listen to the music. I like her playing very much, altough this very Brahms performance of hers sounds a bit too "disciplined" to me. I look for more heaviness and fire and all kinds of drama. But this is still an excellent performance.

    • @1Aldreth
      @1Aldreth 7 년 전 +18

      this whole movement thing while playing is not something musicians do for show. most of the movement comes from feeling the music and is quite substancial for expressing rythm and dynamics. it is really hard to play energetic pieces without moving. in addition when playing with an orchestra as a soloist movement becomes the way of communicating with the conductor.

      @TiqueO6 8 년 전 +33

      Yes! Hillary is often not shy about leading the music, the orchestra, in tempo or feeling to where she feels it should be going. I wonder if she has an agreement with the conductor ahead of time about these kind of things, I have a feeling that she does and that the conductor has a responsibility to know the tendencies of the soloists. Her sense of interplay with the orchestra is so excellent and rare to see that I hope that people are noticing that as well because it is a true collaboration and sharing of inspiration in the moment that we are witnessing in the moment.
      The first time I saw her perform there were two things that stood out that don't always show on videos, that she moves her body with the music from the feet up is if she is slightly dancing, also that she turns and listens to different sections of the orchestra intently when she is not playing shows that she is also listening that intently when she is playing and that you can see and hear that connection very vividly is also apparent.

He would have never considered himself mighty, hence his mightiness. His music is laced with humility. And I agree, its as if she has folded herself into the music.

I don't have a strong favorite for the Brahms concerto (among the old masters that would be David Oistrakh). I listened to fragments of HH's performance and it is without a doubt one of the absolute top executions. Otherwise, the list of top violinists I like very much is long. My overall favorite is Shoji Sayaka. Others I like particularly much are Julia Fisher, Vadim Repin, James Ehnes, Itzhak Perlman, Francesca Dego, Midori, Sarah Chang, Isabelle Faust, Akiko Suwanai and of course also Hilary Hahn.

      Thank you, Stephanie. I was going to say that, but you said it so beautifully. I, too, love her playing of Mendelssohn, with the same orchestra and conductor. That may have something to do with it, too. They seem to be the perfect match.

    I'm a real dunce when it comes to classical music, but I've been listening to Hilary since she was 17 (?) and I don't know anyone who plays with such authority and brilliance at the same time. I could listen to her all day. I still remember the story she told about how she got interested in the violin and wonder what she would have done on that Baltimore day if she hadn't gone for that walk that took her past that music studio.

    Sheesh, that first movement. Hilary and Mr Brahms had me in literal tears.

    I'm always amazed how such complex and complicated music can be remembered and played so well. What a performance and achievement. Compelling.
