She performs it like a walk in the park. Like it was meant to be played. She’s just so natural!

[jonyloncke]

I started listening to Bach wen I was 17 and now I'm 75 and have never heard such an amazing performance of the first violin concerto!

[evanwhipple]

Learning this piece right now for a recital, this by far the best recording I have listened to. No one plays Bach like Hillary Hahn. She plays it so effortlessly, elegantly, and beautifully.

[simonwong]

Nobody beats Hahn on Bach. Such beautiful classy playing.

[liampitcher]

“Music is an agreeable harmony for the honor of God and the permissible delights of the soul.”
― Johann Sebastian Bach

[TheMuston]

She plays Bach exactly how you would like to hear it. Spirited, articulated, grand, organic, technically flawless, elegant and gracious yet powerful, deep and broad, there is everything there. Btw, much superior performance here than the CD with the SFO

My teacher was Hillary Hahns next door neighbor in the 80s and he was in his college years. He was listening to a rock album and then he heard the beauty of hillary hahn when she was only 8!

[Mikeif]

Perfect timing, perfect pitch, perfect tone. Perfect.

I played that piece at 17 for the first time in the conservatory for my HS graduation. I injured my left hand years ago so I have not played in years. But It remains my favorite. Hahn's rendition is flawless.

[tamerlano]

Her playing from around 14:00 on is simply astounding...the way she digs into the suspensions and rides achingly over the orchestra is such a bold choice and it pays off. Brava.

[andreapandypetrapan]

She is just jaw dropping perfection. There is no ego in her performance, just the voice of the Divine and the Genius of the composer. Hilary is “Shakti carrying a violin bow.”

She will be known forever as one of the eternal masters of the instrument 🎻.

[zuzannawisniewska]

Hilary Hahn has achieved an exceptional level of virtuosity. The best violinist, perhaps of all time.Splendor for her musicial skills..

[lampwithbulb]

13:58. Epic violas. Epic entrance of the beginning of the theme, while the violin ostinates incredibly. Huge amount of energy, tears in eyes. Thank you Master of this art....

[TheMuston]

Not only is she a joy to listen to. Her lightly dancing behaviour fits so well to this music OMG how can one be so talented

[NareHarry]

Johann Sebastian Bach would be so proud of you Hilary Hahn!!! Thank you for this outstanding performance.

[zuzannawisniewska]

September 2024.Who's here? What a beautiful performance. She is my favorite violinist. I love her ! ..❤.. I love J.S. Bach. Bravo Hilary! Bravo everyone from Fort Worth, Texas

[jamesewing]

I like the way that, in the last movement, all the players are smiling and making eye contact, really enjoying the dance of the music. Ms. Hahn, who was a dancer, is clearly communicating her own delight to the rest of the orchestra and conductor. 

I also appreciate the choice of tempo - these are clearly dances. If you can't visualize people dancing to much of Bach's music, the tempo is probably too fast. It seems to be a common choice to play Bach a bit faster than the music suggests it ought to be played. Just because you can play fast, doesn't mean you should.

[muripu]

why tf is this piece so hard😭😭especially the last movement i’m playing it for an audition and i sound like a broken lawnmower

[herbertrude]

Now this is music, deep, timeless, astoundingly beautiful music. Thank you Hilary Hahn and the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen.
