Hello everyone! I'm Alef Ghaff, and here I'm gonna show you some of the BESTS in the world of classical music.
We all have heard classical music in its various forms and by so many composers and artists that one can hardly remember, but among all those names and works, there are SOME that no one will ever FORGET.
But what makes a performance - or let's say an interpretation - so memorable and unique that every audience can put a fine line between those and the rest of so many other albums and artists?!
Over the past century there has been over hundreds of thousand recordings, lots of great ones, but only a few were literally UNIQUE and ASTONISHING; recording companies such as Deutsche Gramophone, Decca Classics, RCA Victor, Meloclassics, and EMI have chosen international qualified artists, pianists, ensembles and conductors to present classical music in their best form.

Today I want to introduce you one these artists, 41 year old violinist 🎻 born in Virginia 🇺🇲 , Grammy Award winner for best chamber music, a Deutsche Gramophone artist, intelligence, young, and of course, a true woman of ART. "Hilary Hahn"
If you ask any person in favour of classical music, violin music, or the academics, it's impossible that they don't know Hilary's name or haven't been influenced by her!

Now as for one, I myself couldn't imagine the set of Bach's violin concertos the way I do now, if it weren't for Hilary.
Hilary's touch and incredible sensibility on strings is what separates her from others. Her wide circle of discography contains different eras from Baroque to Contemporary composers, and it is fair to say that each and every one of her albums have reached success in the market. Not that "the market" is always a reasonable exemplar to scale an artist's quality, but sometimes - like in Hilary's case - it is sound.

Not now and not in later posts, I choose not to bother you with unnecessary details and small time business on artists' personal life (unless it's somehow important or relevant) so I'm just gonna skip to the end, where I'd like to introduce you an album (or albums) which you will keep in your favourites until the day you live!

For Hilary Hahn, it is her tweleve tracks recorded with Los Angeles chamber orchestra under the baton of Jeffrey Kahane, representing 4 concertos written by Johann Sebastian Bach. Two concertos for violin, one concerto for 2 violins, and the last, concerto for oboe & violin. All performed with an incomparable vision that Hilary gives us with Jeffrey and his orchestra! I highly recommend you to hear this album the first chance you get, and please feel free to share your opinion on Hilary and her works!
