摘自 博客來音樂館 網站 : 希拉蕊‧韓是近年相當受到樂界矚目的小提琴家。雖然她的年紀不大，但是卻沒有年輕人的血氣方剛的表現欲。音樂中沒有任何的誇張，但是從容不迫的氣度和細膩的表情，卻極富吸引力，抒情的地方優美而不濫情。在這張專輯裡，希拉蕊‧韓錄製了每一位小提琴家都必須演奏的經典曲目：柴可夫斯基小提琴協奏曲，以及美國作曲家珍妮佛‧希格東獲得2010年普立茲獎的小提琴協奏曲。 當希拉蕊‧韓在寇帝斯音樂學院唸書的時候，珍妮佛‧希格東不但是她的二十世紀音樂史教授，也是當時美國古典作曲界一顆冉冉升起的新星。畢業後不久，希拉蕊‧韓參與珍妮佛‧希格東的低音管四重奏首演，兩人開始討論創作一首新的小提琴奏鳴曲，或是協奏曲的可能性。幾年後，她們決定寫成協奏曲，2008年樂季正式亮相。 這是一部節奏繁複、經過段相當獨特，對於樂團或是獨奏家都是一大挑戰的作品。最吸引人的，莫過於小提琴與樂團之間的交替唱和，有時會讓人產生這是一部管弦樂協奏曲的錯覺。柴可夫斯基小提琴協奏曲是希拉蕊‧韓在寇帝斯音樂學院的老師，也是俄羅斯小提琴家雅沙‧布羅茨基指導她學習的作品之一，是她學生時期最常演奏的作品之一。成為專業小提琴家之後數年，希拉蕊‧韓再度回到這首學生時期最常演奏的作品，並且重新賦予它更多元、更精細的內涵。 "This was what it used to be like in classical music: a hot young soloist offers a newly commissioned work along with a fresh interpretation of a warhorse, and it's released with some fanfare on a major label. It doesn't happen that often anymore, but Hilary Hahn, a student of the last student of Eugène Ysaÿe, shows that there's life in the old model yet. The new work was commissioned by Hahn herself and grew out of her association with the composer, Jennifer Higdon, at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia. The concerto won the Pulitzer Prize for music in 2010, and Higdon's colorfully orchestrated music in general has been popular among American orchestras. But the concerto is closely tailored to Hahn's individual style, with its combination of steely flawlessness and delicate lyricism. Whether it will take off among other performers remains to be seen, but a real marriage of composer and performer comes through here (and of course the virtuoso concertos of the 19th century all had their individual champions). But it comes off beautifully here, unfolding with seeming inevitability from the lovely opening passage in harmonics through the beautifully orchestrated first movement in which the violin engages in both solo heroics and dialogues with various orchestral groupings; the flute, Higdon's own instrument, is prominently featured ...
