One of my favorites, above. I'm a bit of a Samuel Barber, Curtis grad that he is, fan anyway but I think she hits his violin concerto out of the park.

The Edgar Meyer piece is a treat.

Have heard her play live quite a few times, even a VERY brief hello after a concert with the Utah Symphony a few years ago. She has quite the following as Abravanel Hall was wall to wall young girls, all there to hear her play the Sibelius. Few stayed after the autograph signing at intermission.

First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
