  • New 'Ysaye - Six Sonatas for Violin Solo' op 27 recording proves Hilary Hahn is as riveting alone as with an orchestra / textura
    Posted At: October 1, 2023
    textura writes…..Among other things, Hilary Hahn's recording of Eugène Ysaÿe's Six Sonatas for Violin Solo, op. 27 proves the violinist's playing is as riveting when heard alone as when accompanied by an orchestra. That she would have such a powerful connection to Ysaÿe (1858-1931), the legendary Belgian musician and composer who wrote this cycle in June 1923, makes sense: she was a student to Jascha Brodsk...

    Posted At: July 10, 2023
    Violinist.com's Laurie Niles writes…..Violin-playing today owes a lot to one important man of yesterday: Eugène Ysaÿe - who lived from 1858 to 1931. For one, he wrote the Six Sonatas for solo violin - beautiful and groundbreaking pieces that follow in the footsteps of Bach's Sonatas and Partitas. But also, there is the direct teaching lineage that so many people can claim to Ysaÿe, who taught Joseph Gingold...

    Posted At: July 6, 2023

For the First – and longest – of the sonatas (in...
