Hilary Hahn interprets Arnold Schoenberg's Violin Concerto, recognized as one of the most complex and technically challenging concertos of the whole violin repertoire

Although the Schoenberg is rarely given in concert or on recordings, Hahn has made herself a strong advocate of the neglected piece, playing it in concert around the globe to high critical acclaim: 'Hahn didn't merely play the notes, she passionately engaged with them.' (The Daily Telegraph, on a live performance of the Schoenberg Violin Concerto)

In yet another unique coupling of hers, Hahn pairs the Schoenberg together with her long-awaited first recording of the famous Sibelius Violin Concerto, one of the most beloved romantic concertos

Hahn brings out the romantic qualities of Schoenberg's Concerto - known as one of the most difficult pieces in the violin repertoire - showing why it makes an ideal coupling with the Sibelius - 'Hahn didn't merely play the notes, she passionately engaged with them.' (The Daily Telegraph, on a live performance of the Schoenberg Violin Concerto)

In Esa-Pekka Salonen Hahn has the ideal musical partner for this project. Both an acclaimed Sibelius interpreter and a known advocate of 20th-century music, Salonen leads the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra to the core of the two challenging orchestral scores

This coupling sheds new light on both concertos and brings out the romantic qualities of Schoenberg's Concerto more then ever before
