Bach: Violin Concertos, BWV 1041-1043; Oboe and Violin Concerto.(Sound Recording Review)
Bach: Violin Concertos, BWV 1041-1043; Oboe and Violin Concerto. Hilary Hahn, violin; Jeffrey Kahane, Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra. DG B0000986-02.
This one should be up for some kind of "Best of the year" award. At least, it is from me. With only a minor reservation about the sound, I can recommend the disc with almost complete assurance.
Perhaps because Ms. Hahn was relatively young when she recorded these pieces at age 23 in 2002-03, she was able to bring to them a youthful vitality that is sometimes missing in the performances of older artists. Yet the vitality in no way suggests immaturity or reckless abandon. Indeed, it brings to the works a contemporary feeling, making them sound as though were written in and for our own era. All three of Bach's familiar Violin Concertos are made to sound new again through Hahn's lively, spirited, yet thoughtful interpretations. If the Violin and Oboe Concerto seems a bit more conservative by comparison, it is no less persuasive.
