“Hahn’s superpowers were on display from the first ascending octaves through the final chords.”
— San Francisco Classical Voice

“One of those rare artists whose voice unfailingly bridges the space between his heart and ours”
— San Francisco Classical Voice

Two of today’s most compelling artists unite for an unforgettable evening: baritone Matthias Goerne brings his profound expressive power and operatic mastery, while violinist Hilary Hahn offers her trailblazing virtuosity and fearless musical curiosity.

They are joined by Yekwon Sunwoo, first Korean gold medalist of the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition. Together, they illuminate the classical repertoire and a new Reena Esmail work with emotional depth, technical brilliance, and electrifying artistic presence.
