Question: Who is u fave living classical violinist!? What performance/recording makes he/she memorable to you!?
Please exclude PZ because he is a jerk!. Why will this particular performance become historical!? Any CLASSICAL performance; string4, concerto, sonata, minuet, symphony et!. al!. Thanx!. Please no Nigel Kennedy and the Kronos Quartet!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg

Favorite recording: Mendelssohn Concerto in E Minor (1988)

I don't really have the vocabulary to describe why this would be historical!. Her interpretation just shows such great understanding of the nuances of tempo and dynamics (soft to loud to soft)!. So effortlessly expressive!. She draws me in every time (like right now lol)!Www@QuestionHome@Com

My favorite classical violinist is Hilary Hahn!. She is absolutely amazing, really a child protegy!
