Hahn’s Fan Art

For decades, many of Hilary Hahn’s dedicated fans have given her artwork after concerts – ‘everything from fouryear-old violin students to professional painters’. Touched by this outpouring of creativity, Hahn (below) began publishing this

Fan Art on her Facebook page, then in 2017 took the relationship a step further by asking her fans to create illustrations for Retrospective (above), a compilation album of her favourite tracks from previous recordings plus 30 minutes of new material, using the chosen images both for the cover and the booklet. She followed this in 2021 with a call for fan photos and artwork to appear in a video for her new album, Paris.
