In 27 Pieces: The Hilary Hahn Encores
L. van Beethoven Violin Sonata No.4, Op. 23, A minor
J. S. Bach Sonata for Solo Violin No. 1, BWV 1001, G minor
Violinist Hilary Hahn is the first guest of 2013 at Is Sanat. Her probing interpretations, technical brilliance, and commitment to new music and the commissioning process have not only made her one of the most sought-after artists of our time, but also brought her love of classical music to a diverse audience. Although only 32 years old, her international fame and recognition, including two Grammies, multiple Diapason d\'Or of the Year and Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik prizes, and the 2008 Classic FM / Gramophone Artist of the Year, are a testament to her talent and drive. Hahn appears regularly with the world’s elite orchestras and on the most prestigious recital series. In the 15 years since she began recording, Hahn has released 12 feature albums on the Deutsche Grammophon and Sony labels, in addition to three DVDs, an Oscar-nominated movie soundtrack, an award-winning recording for children, and various compilations. Hahn shows her commitment to contemporary music with her In 27 Pieces: The Hilary Hahn Encores. For this project, she has commissioned over two dozen composers to write short-form pieces for acoustic violin and piano. In this concert Hahn will accompanied by pianist Cory Smythe, an inventive improviser, chamber musician, and performer of contemporary classical music. He has performed internationally both as a soloist and chamber musician at the Darmstadt International Summer Festival for New Music, the Bang on a Can Marathon in New York City, Ravinia\'s Rising Stars Series, and Mostly Mozart at Lincoln Center.
