Early in her career, violinist Hilary Hahn took on music that many before her wouldn't approach until they were a little older.  She chose three of the six unaccompanied violin works of J.S. Bach, a set regarded as the pinnacle of solo violin repertoire.  Now, 21 years later, Hahn returns to complete the set.  Naturally, her interpretation may sound different, but one constant remains:  Hilary Hahn is very much at home with these 6 pieces.  She shares more about it with All Classical Portland's program director John Pitman.

A Life, Portland Center Stage - A wickedly irreverent play about the meaning of life. Nate Martin is hopelessly single.

Poring over astrological charts, he obsessively questions his past and his place in the cosmos. The answer he gets is shockingly obvious — and totally unpredictable.

Nina's work as a soloist is now sometimes found in a concert hall, but more likely in bars and cafes around Portland. Though she has trained classically for most of her life and currently plays full time with the Oregon Symphony, her solo repertoire is heavily influenced by bassists whose approach and compositions straddle the worlds of classical, bluegrass, Latin, and Middle Eastern music, including François Rabbath, Edgar Meyer, and Renaud Garcia-Fons. Her choice of venue is inspired by the renowned cellist Matt Haimovitz, who began playing in a variety of nightclubs and restaurants amidst a successful solo career, hoping to bring classical music to more unconventional audiences. Nina's sets combine a variety of styles and pieces, incorporating jazz standards and fiddle tunes amidst the more traditional Bach cello suites.
