Hilary Again

Fresh from our mention the other day, Hilary Hahn appeared on the radar again last night when the PBS Newshour did a piece on her collaboration with composer Jennifer Higdon, which you can see here. (Here is a most interesting NPR (National Public Radio) interview on the same subject, also.)

A plus was Hilary's bonus performance of Bach's Sarabande in D minor...



You might also like to check out one of the earliest interviews with Hilary I heard back in 2004 on NPR. Over the years, NPR has included Hilary in quite a few pieces, which I encourage you to explore on its site.

Finally, I must turn you on to one of my favorite CDs ... Bach: Violin and Voice in which Hilary accompanies Matthias Goerne and Christine Schafer in a variety of Bach cantatas and selections from the Mass in B minor and the St. Matthew Passion.
