Watch: Hilary Hahn goes swimming in her concert gown
mainThe things you have to do these days to get onto Slipped Disc.
Always wanted to swim in my concert gown & always wanted to swim in one of these northern lakes, so after I made a joke about it at @Festspillene after my 1st solo Bach recital of 2 this evening, I thought, why not. I’ll do it myself! When in Norway… pic.twitter.com/zQzLdmCzIE

Now, Bell and Kavakos and Mutter and Gluzman and Barati and Josefowicz and Kang and Accardo and… will be doing the same thing. I’m sure she had a good reason for doing this other than publicity. Hahn does not need publicity. Or, maybe she does….
Pretty sure she does it for fun. Why not?
Not a single one of those guys would look good in a concert dress….
Maybe Mutter, but her sizable endowments would be flopping out of her strapless Halston dress.
Vanessa Mae did this to memorable effect back in the 1980s or so (maybe later, I don’t care).
Awesome
Kinda dangerous, isn’t it? Depending on the material of the dress, the added weight could sank a person.
Perhaps Yuja will follow suit now 🙂
By the way, a brilliant recital on Thursday!
Charmingly natural, HH is a non-pretentious star. She willingly appears on TwoSetViolin for fun. Swiming in rivers and lakes is something Europeans do.
Waiting for Khatia Buniatishvili to try this.
Lovable nutter!
How silly and completely unnecessary. I like her. 😀
She is not exactly a household name so any free publicity is welcome. even this inane nonsense .
She is one of the top violinists in Europe.
Best comment! Lol
So cool! My hero!
I’m almost sure dressmaker said “dry wash”, darling… lololol
Who does she think she is? Lara St. John?
She’s auditioning for a permanent spot with Eddy and Brett.
