Violin great makes Tchaikovsky's technically challenging Violin Concerto look easy 16 years after she made her Tucson Symphony Orchestra debut.
Cathalena E. Burch Violin great Hilary Hahn walked onto the Linda Ronstadt Music Hall stage Wednesday night and drank in the deafening applause mixed in with a whoop-whoop coming from a woman in the fourth row.
It's a cliché to say it, but here goes: Her concert with the TSO, under the baton of Music Director José Luis Gomez and the spectacular performance by the orchestra, was worth the wait.

When she wasn't playing, she was fan-girling at the TSO, smiling warmly at Concertmaster Lauren Roth and the strings and giving Maestro Gomez a look every once in awhile that said"we got this." The chemistry between Hahn and the orchestra erased the 16-year gap between her first and second appearance and invited us into what felt like a class reunion.
Gomez and the orchestra opened Wednesday's"An Evening with Hilary Hahn" concert with Grieg’s “Peer Gynt” Suite No. 1, bringing out the birds-chirping sunrise on the horizon opening that has been co-opted in TV commercials and"Saturday Night Live" skits; and Tchaikovsky’s lush “Swan Lake” Suite, that served as an appetizer for the composer's concerto in the second half.
