Hilary Hahn 2015

As an amateur violinist Hilary Hahn is one of my heroes and someone I study for her flawless technique. She plays Bach's solo sonata in G minor which is just ridiculous (I can almost play the first four bars). She's only 35 and already she has been touring and recording for almost twenty years. Below is some footage of her nailing Paganini's 24th caprice:

If you weren't previously acquainted with Hahn and you fancy yourself as a violinist or an enthusiast then there's enough going around the internet to keep you vaguely satisfied. If you want the real deal however, she doesn't spend a lot of time off the road and the US and Europe are in luck for the near future -
