[SF Symphony] Hilary Hahn plays Prokofiev
Violinist Hilary Hahn is “technically immaculate, musically magisterial” (Los Angeles Times). She performs Prokofiev’s early Violin Concerto, which draws upon the composer’s keen personal style of melody. It is paired with Shostakovich’s Sixth Symphony, which begins unusually with a slow and contemplative first movement. And Maestro Osmo Vänskä begins with Kalevi Aho’s Minea, a driving and breathless work that was enormously well received in its premiere with Vänskä’s Minnesota Orchestra.
“Hahn…can dazzle you with the warmth of her personality and knock you dead with the dexterity of her technique and the emotional depth of her interpretations.” —LOS ANGELES TIMES
