Hilary Hahn Performs in a Salute to the SSO! Springfield would love to call her their own, and maybe through familial lineage they can. Grammy Award winning violinist Hilary Hahn will be coming to town on Tuesday, January 13 at 7:30 PM in the Clark State Community College Performing Arts Center, Kuss Auditorium. She will perform with the SYS and the SSO in memory of her grandmother, Springfield native Martha Hahn, a dedicated member of the Women's Association of the Springfield Symphony Orchestra (WASSO). Hilary will delight the audience by performing a stirring rendition of Bruch's Violin Concerto No.1, op.26 in g minor. Proceeds raised from her performance will benefit WASSO and the Clark County Literacy Coalition. The young musician, known for her purity and precision, performs around the globe with such prestigious groups as the London Symphony Orchestra and the New Zealand Symphony, as well as, the symphony orchestras of Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Montreal, Toronto and Hong Kong. Ms. Hahn began lessons at the age of three and eight years later made her debut performance with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. In 1996, Ms. Hahn completed the requirements for a Bachelor of Music degree from Philadelphia's Curtis Institute of Music and went on to sign an exclusive recording contract with Sony Classical. She released five award-winning albums with Sony, including her Billboard Classical Charts bestseller Solo Sonatas and Partitas of J.S. Bach recording. In 2001, she received a Grammy Award for her concertos recordings of Brahms and Stravinsky. Recently, Ms. Hahn signed with Deutsche Grammophon and released her first album on that label in September 2003. Don't miss the opportunity to hear what IMG Artists proclaims to be "one of the great hopes for classical music in the 21st century."
