In 1990, Hilary Hahn entered the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia to study with Jascha Brodsky, the last surviving student of Eugène Ysaÿe.

Hilary Hahn has recorded for Deutsche Grammophon since 2002. Her first recording for the Yellow Label, four concertos by J. S. Bach, was released to wide critical acclaim in 2003. In 2008 she was named Classic FM Gramophone “Artist of the Year”; her fifth recording for Deutsche Grammophon, the Schoenberg and Sibelius violin concertos, with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen, won a Choc du Monde de la musique in 2008 and a Grammy® for “Best Instrumental Soloist Performance (with Orchestra)” in 2009. ...... ..Latest Release (Jan 2010):.. ..
