Oct 7, 2008 - You people sicken me. You should realize something: You are all a bunch of incompetent losers who are posting their retarded comments on YouTube in a weak attempt to look intelligent. Well I'm sorry, but that is just pitiful. Perhaps if you truly wish to be smart, you should quit getting information off of Wikipedia and start playing an actual violin. Really, you'll get a lot more out of it. You should try it, you sad group of fat, lazy toolbags.

Oct 7, 2008 - This performance is not bad,technically talking.But the interpretation is shallow and corny, unfortunately. Too much perspiration and lack of imagination and fancy. I'd love to listen to original interpretations. Congratulations anyway!

Oct 7, 2008 - Hilary Hahn is one of the most talented and musically gifted violinists there are. She is one of the prettiest too. Alog with Sarah Chang who is another godess.

Oct 7, 2008 - lol. i was like, why is hillary stand all the way over there by herself, then the camera moved and i see that it was just a tv lol

Zvax Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - So right. I love you.People should think more often and talk a lot less. period.

Newbee2000 Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - Does anyone get contact with Hilary? If you have her emailadress, please give me. I'm an architect from China, and I always love classic music. Now I'm studying and working in Germany. Does anyone know, when will Hilary come to Berlin next time? I think, perhaps I can be a good friend of her. I love her play so much!!!......Anybody can help me???

Oct 7, 2008 - haha thank you! couldn't have said that better myself. the whole commenting thing on youtube rarely achieves more than e-thug warscome to think of it, i can't remember the last time i read a comment that even began to add something interesting to the video clip (this comment included)

Oct 7, 2008 - That what it is all about with free comments - any member provides. With free commenting rights we get the full gamma, from the crudest to the most enlightened - not one dominates. YouTube introduces the interpretations of Hillary Hahn to millions around the globe (not just those who can pay for a ticket in a nice concert hall). But all of us can buy her well-picked recordings and base our applause/criticism on their superb audio technical excellence, second to none.

SoCalTrojan Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - lol. sarah chang (widest, ugliest vibrato in the fking world jesus christ, SHE CANT EVEN HEAR HERSELF) is at the bottom of the talent and skills list. Hahn is definitely at the top with the rest of the virtuosic violinists out there today. loved this excerpt. i give a 10/10

MarcDupree Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - lol yeah seriously man... get real

musikmkw Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - Tut Tut. I can see you like Hilary Hahn very much. However, you are so wrong to spat out rubbish like that regarding Sarah Chang. I guess you can't even possbibly can't be the bottom of the talent that you are mentioning? Sarah is another most talented violinist that the world loves. You should keep your mouth shut fool.

Oct 7, 2008 - you are retarded.

y0ssarian87 Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - while i wouldnt've put it that way. i would probably have to agree. fight on!

Klautenbogg Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - Hilary is a wonderful violinist but musicians like her have no time to live, they have to play all the time and managers push them to do that.They make a lot of money out of top musicians' work.

kellbellwon Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - love this girl. love her incredible talent. ive commented like a zillion of her videos. lol im not obsessed. i promise. i just think shes absolutely incredible. and i really wish i were that good.

crankycaz Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - Ever thought for a second that they might actually want to play themselves? No one can be a great violinist by being pushed by someone else - ultimately the motivation has to come from yourself, otherwise you'll never make it.

hentaiwarrior16 Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - i think sarah chang is an ill violinist...but hilary hahn hits this nerve in my body that no other violinist gives me lol and i play the basslol i am deff hilary hahns number one double bass fan

SoCalTrojan Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - haha. no im not a hilary hahn fan. i am a sarah chang hater though from what ive seen and heard. i love her younger recordings. theyre great and timeless performances but i really dont like the stuff she does now. and hilary hahn isnt even in my list of favorite violinists =] but she is awesome in many ways. im sorry for making such a radical statement
