Sage Wisdom

"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

October 2, 2006 | Chris Thile & Hilary Hahn in Concert

Chris Thile joins internationally renowned violinist Hilary Hahn in New York City in concert at the Housing Works Bookstore to celebrate dual album releases, October 10th, 7:30pm. The event is also a high-profile fundraiser for fighting AIDS and homelessness, and will be a magical evening of classical and bluegrass music. Both musicians have been known to break beyond their "roots" with classical violinist Hahn guesting on albums by alternative rockers, and Thile of course, national mandolin championship prodigy and Nickel Creek co-creator since his teenage years.

Thile has partnered with bassist Edgar Meyer and has recently recorded two duet albums with mandolinist extraordinare, Mike Marshall, comprised of folk, original tunes, and classical Bach arrangements. Mike told us a couple years ago, "Chris really kicks my butt in learning all the Violin Partitas, he has most of them memorized."

Both Hahn and Thile share a love for the Bach solo partitas and sonatas for violin; this should be an exceptional concert!
