@@thetubaprodigy No way! You should go and listen to her performing live, then you'll realize! You can hear every single note she plays, her playing is so pure! It's really unbelievable!
Some people think she's one of the less emotive violinists and I feel the complete opposite! Hilary's playing has such strength and clarity, and such strong emotions. I always keep coming back to her for my soul to feel satisfied.
@John Dukewell, this is a generalisation. Anw, I disagree with the statement that she is not emotive, at least not recently. Her first Bach album included a very disappointing and still Chaconne though, it is the only time I wasn't touched by an interpretation of her. Too bad it was on the greatest of pieces.
Me too. I don't even really like classical music, or Baroque music in this case, or romantic music or anything like that but whenever it's her playing I can't seem to click off, I end up listening the whole way through
I feel like I literally can't move when I listen to her. I know I have class in a few minutes, and homework to do, but I just can't bear to break the feeling of being nearer to divinity than nearly any other time when I listen to her play, and ponder.
like there isn‘t any best „feeling“ or best „character“ of the world, there isn’t any best interpretation of a specific piece. but for sure, she can express herself so well!!! I adore her interpretation as well!! ❤️❤️😍😍
First time I try to use an accent acquiring language method to improve my sound on violin. Imitating ten seconds of Hilary Hahn, now I can play double strings vibrato... thank you, Hilary Hahn.
I came back to playing the violin three years ago after a 40 year hiatus. Currently working mostly on Bach. Came across Hilary via TwoSet, saw her live playing a programme of Bach at the Wigmore Hall in London a few weeks ago. What a privilege and joy. I've never heard anything on the violin as sublime as her rendition of Bach (and I've listened to lots of Perlman, Vengerov, and the current crop of soloists etc in the last few years). There's a purity and lack of arrogance in her playing that just melts my heart.
First time I hear her rendition of this. I am a professional musician for 40 years and worked as a freelancer as a woodwind doubler in everything, including orchestras..... It takes a very compelling performance to draw me in deep these days.... this one moved me to tears. Literally. Now I have to hunt down everything Hillary has recorded. Loud cheers!!! Beautiful. powerful compelling rendition. Thank you for that.
she's making those rolled chords and phrases into the graceful waves rolling in and past you---what a bow arm and what a beautiful concept for the Bach. Stays on eighth note bass notes longer it's really my new favorite. one thing: at 3:32---m 17 in part, it sounds like she re-articulates the g from the P5th along with the b natural...it's not an edit, not deny, and it is implied (V 7/5 over 1)... interesting
Enjoy so much listening to Hilary Hahn play J.S. Bach. Own a CD that she made about fifteen years ago, she was quite young, and she plays each composition beautifully. She's stated on the liner notes in the CD that she enjoys J.S. Bach so much. It's no wonder because I can hear her heart is totally absorbed in his compositions. Beautiful Ms. Hahn.
I’m literally trying to learn this piece, but I can’t help but adore her playing. It’s so clear, so controlled, so beautiful I just can’t describe how amazing this performance is..
This very deliberate, sonorous, impeccably tuned performance is striking in its purity and has a rather austere emotional character. It is beautiful in that sense. Others play with more freedom of motion and nuance, setting up the cadences as directional goals. I think this piece, especially, is illusive in its interpretive demands and should be interpreted according to a performer's inner sense of connection with Bach's musical lines and harmonic direction. A performer might not want or need to play it the same every time. It is difficult to capture the sense of a spontaneous, almost improvisatory, approach on a recording. Ms. Hahn's humble, honest, faithfulness and piety are a beautiful answer to the questions raised by this enigmatic work. No two great artists will offer the same answers.
I love hearing a performance that is so purely musical. This is what I would hear in my head while starting at the score, unencumbered by any sign of just how enormously difficult this is or any "performative emotion." Just pure music.
I applaud and respect Hillary, who must have suffered ten times more to have and raise two children. Although I got to know her Hillary belatedly, I deeply and passionately love and like her playing Hillary more than anyone else.
I remember hearing Hillary some years back, playing a Paganini piece. It sent shivers up my spine, and within the first 6 or 7 bars, I could tell she was going to play it as every bit on point as Itzhak Perlman; and she was so young! I knew that has she developed she would do great things, and I am glad to see that I was right. I don't know much in life, but when I get it right, its a bullseye.
She plays the first chord. The world fades to black and all that is left is the sound. Like a lover she caresses the instrument. It sings a song - a melancholy lament into the Abyss A song without words, three hundred years old and from the past it reaches into our complex world. Time stands still. Air ceases to be. Like honey the maestra weaves the old spell. Radiant beauty - the bow, the string, the hands, the woman, sending forth the song. And all who hear it weep with joy, with sorrow, with life. A willow tree, Autumn, our finite being.
Want to say I look up to you so much I'm a very young 🎻 player and your playing makes me feel so much better about life and maybe I can be like you one day I would love to meet some day, have fun good luck in this crazy world and I send my prays to you for anything
Black Lightning's Season 4 ep1 intro brought me here. Was a nice, intense violin to hear during the opening somber scene where Jefferson Pierce (aka Black Lightning), while conversing with the spirit of his father, stands alone over a close friend's gravestone. The show's had lots of various, good music featured on it but this would be the 1st where I've gone on to find it after watching an ep. To me, the violin's emotion and intensity beautifully conveys Jefferson's inner conflict regarding whether to continue on with defending his city despite having experienced so much loss over the years. It definitely hit the nail on the head for me but I don't know very much about any stringed instruments at all with everyone else here mentioning "crossovers" or how you play chords on it. I may've grown up playing piano & woodwinds (clarinet, alt/sop saxes) but only had limited interaction with stringed instruments when I spent 4 semesters in my college's symphony orchestra (put toward the Music minor on my degree).
This piece is very reminiscent, but I feel hints of tragedy. Maybe even a bit of hate. Regardless, it is such a beautiful piece that I cannot help but come back to it at least once a week!
There is a certain hesitation i think, perhaps mixed with longing and agitation. Acquiescence, reluctant attempts at accepting some sort of unchangable fate. Followed again by frustrated contemplation. This goes on for a while i guess and finally there is the return to home/"the answer" with some sort of newfound appreciation of the acceptance of the inevitable.
Beleza e tragédia quando combinadas provocam no ser humano os mais profundos sentimentos e apenas os grandes gênios são capazes de eternizar fabulosas melodias que ostentam essa qualidade. Viva, Bach, companheiro de tantas jornadas ao âmago do coração humano!!
The reason Bach is so hard to play on violin is because he was a pianist so when he composed for violin he wrote like you’d write for piano. So you need to play each chord like as if you’re playing piano. It needs to lead somewhere, like with the first chord - g d b flat and g. It starts on the low g and climbs it way up to the high g, sustaining the last note. It’s so difficult to play it exactly how it is meant to be played. But Hilary Hahn captures it perfectly. She plays it so well!
God you are publishing wrong information, bach wasn't a pianist there wasn't the piano we know now at that period, he was a violinist in a court, and he would like to find someone who has a great ability, great soul like hilary to translate his compositions
viotam hilhah I know that there was no pianos in the baroque period but there were harpsichords and organs. That’s what I meant. Also I don’t know if it’s cause I’m really tired since I just woke up but I actually can’t understand the other half of your comment. Like I read it but I’m just not understanding the words. 😂😂😂 and caroline he was also a violinist but keyboard was his main instrument.

Andy Wu Yeah, she’s a goddess her tone legit sounds like this
She made it sounds easy to play😿
Her string crossings are so smooth I can barely hear them and her intonation is perfect, which is so hard with all those chords and double stops.
Some people think she's one of the less emotive violinists and I feel the complete opposite! Hilary's playing has such strength and clarity, and such strong emotions. I always keep coming back to her for my soul to feel satisfied.
WHO THINKS SHE'S LESS EMOTIVE I SWEAR WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM
HONESTLY she may not physically show it but you can definitely hear it in her music.
@John Duke because it's by looking that you determine how emotional the violinist is?
@John Dukewell, this is a generalisation.
Anw, I disagree with the statement that she is not emotive, at least not recently. Her first Bach album included a very disappointing and still Chaconne though, it is the only time I wasn't touched by an interpretation of her. Too bad it was on the greatest of pieces.
I am a non musician, two setter
I know nothing but I can definitely hear and feel it in her playing that's why I keep on coming back for her Bach
When I am listening to her playing, I feel like I have no right to skip, pause or close the video before it ends...
Me too. I don't even really like classical music, or Baroque music in this case, or romantic music or anything like that but whenever it's her playing I can't seem to click off, I end up listening the whole way through

Hahn playing bach makes an atheist contemplate the possible existence of God. She is truly remarkable
And then reconsider when they realize all western tonal music relies on the dirty approximation 2^7 ~= 1.5^12
Savage 😭😭😭
she's quite simply the world's greatest violinist today, perhaps of any day......
I love that brief sound when the bow engages the string before producing the note.
Bach's genius is the work all great violinists are measured against. Outstanding!
So that's how a world class violinist plays it...
we all agree that this is one of the best pieces in the world
