San Francisco Performances Hilary Hahn, violin

Violinist Hilary Hahn comes to SFP at the absolute peak of her technical and musical powers. Her varied repertoire ranges from Bach to Stravinsky, Beethoven to Korngold (she won a 2008 Grammy for her recording of Schoenberg and Sibelius concertos), and she has premiered and recorded concertos written for her by Edgar Meyer and Pulitzer Prize-winner Jennifer Higdon. Expect this program to be something of a master class in the violin sonata.

Violinist Hilary Hahn catapulted into the international spotlight as a teenager, when the uncommon maturity of her debut recording shot it to the top of the charts. Now all grown up at 31, she returns to Herbst Theatre on Feb. 19.
