Hilary Hahn - Sibelius Violin Concerto (part 2)

This is the second part of the 1st movement of Sibelius's Violin Concerto.

I was lucky enough to catch this on a foreign channel several years ago.

Hilary has a beautiful sound, great musicianship and flawless technique. There are other ways to be a great player. It's just that happens to be my favorite combination. Especially the clean sound spoils me.

Those of you who condemn Hillary Hahn for inferior interpretation of this piece, it seems as though you are forgetting that a recording of this stature at this or any age is a truly marvelous achievement, and I can't help but think that your harsh critique is not caused by jealousy, none of you could compare.

I love 3:03 sooooo much! <3 We play this music and I can cry at that part! It's sooo beautiful! <33 Love the music of Sibelius!!

It's possible to play violin concerto in different rythm and it's always a new melody. I like the interpritation of Herbert Karajan with slower rythm, but this is also amazing!

I wrote the impolite thing to the Symphonie Orchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks and Mr. Lorin Maazel.

I repent of having written in rashly.

Apologizes respectfully.

However, my opinion was written to another writing.

Please allow me.

Since the tempo of orchestra is slower than the tempo which Ms. Hahn wants to play, Ms. Hahn seems to have reached a compromise.

[masattitube]

Tempo of orchestra is somewhat too slow. There are some notes which should be performed a little more quickly.

@masattitube perhaps you can explain us, what is bad with Lorin Maazel and the Symphonie Orchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks?

Hilary is awesome, fuck the haters.

In response to complaints about Hilary's "Bland Interpretation": Just because a performer follows the style of the time period of a piece does not mean that they are bland performers. A great performer takes into account what era of music the piece was written in, and who the composer was. However, they also express what the music says to them, and that is how a great solist moves their audience. Hilary Hahn is an incredible musician, just listen in peace and enjoy the music.
