Norman Lebrecht talks to Grammy Award-winning violinist Hilary Hahn. Born in Lexington, Virginia, Hahn was a child prodigy who made her major orchestral debut while still in her early teens. Now celebrated for her captivating stage presence and deeply felt interpretations, Hahn's international career embraces everything from concerto appearances (playing classic and new repertoire), to recitals, recordings for Deutsche Grammophon, and collaborations with singer-songwriter Tom Brosseau and folk-based singer-songwriter Josh Ritter. She tells Norman about the - sometimes harsh - realities of life on the road, the challenges of sustaining relationships, busking and the effects of the credit crunch on the classical music industry.
