Schoenberg, Sibelius: Violin Concertos / Hilary Hahn, Esa-Pekka Salonen, Swedish Radio SO

Remarks:

"An amazing performance (of the Schoenberg), plain and simple, quite possibly the finest the piece has yet been given, and enjoyable on that basis alone…Coupled to a truly characterful and personal view of the Sibelius, this disc ratifies Hahn's standing among the most outstanding violinists active today... Both pieces benefit from the close cooperation between Hahn and the orchestra, and happily DG's engineers find an excellent balance between the two. Every detail of the solo registers clearly, but without sounding artificially forward." -Classics Today (10/10)
 

Notes:

This album received the 2008 Grammy Award for "Best Instrumental Soloist(s)'s Performance (with Orchestra)." It was also nominated for the 2008 Grammy Award for "Best Classical Album."
