I've done nothing but sit here and watch and listen to these videos for the past 3 days since I discovered them. I was aware she was going to do shows with Josh but had no idea they would turn out like this. I hope they tour more, do a DVD of this show or any other one on their tour. Pure magic and chemistry and leaves your soul wanting more. To hell with the critics, who can sit here and watch these and not be moved. "Thin Blue Flame" and "Girl in the War" are exceptional.
this is one of my favorite songs from Josh Ritter, but its interesting how this song is so different from much of his other stuff. this is is so much heavier and serious than most of his other stuff, its a great song though...hillary also did a great job there towards the end
SevenCircles I hope that you are kidding lol, he is literally one of the greatest lyricists of all time. This song is the musical equivalent of T.S. Elliot's "The Wasteland". But if you're not into it, that's cool. Good writing isn't everyone's thing, and I guess I'll have to learn to live with that.
As talented as Ms. Hahn is in her own genre, she was a little out of her element here. She sounded... amazingly classical. Some people might dig that... I don't, but I respect her skill. On the other hand, he sounds like a rapper strumming some chords. "One of the most amazing lyricists of all time". Probably why he sounds like a rapper and not a singer.

this is possibly the single greatest piece of performance video on youtube - simply outstanding
Her eyes are always so focused and contemplative when she plays, like she’s playing it for the first time.
This series of videos, aside from the volume level issues, it just outstanding. I don't know how I missed them.
I'm a fan of everything she does. Brilliant playing!
This fills me with such joy.
The violin is perfect, tone is unbelievable
How did I just found this video now?
Starting at 5:34 Hilary goes crazy! :) Haha!
But it is beautiful.
i know what you mean sam..i bawled my eyes out.
To me, these 8 minutes nad 15 seconds are among the most exciting in musical history. It is a pity the footage quality is so poor.
Hilary Hahn collaborates with the coolest people. Josh Ritter, Mr Rogers, Twoset. I want to be Hilary Hahn.
Chris Thile too

lol that solo around 5 minutes was like the equalization to those guitar solos u see at concerts xD but better
5:34 most virtuosic improvisation I've ever heard
Lovely.
so god dam powerful
I read somewhere that her connection to Josh Ritter is through family friends.
what happened to the audio on this? can barely hear it
Loved Hilary's contribution in this. Amazing solo.
I wish Josh would hit the low notes, though...
Hey mr. uploader, do you have that polyphonic song she plays? It was on this show.
Do you mean Erlkönig? It is here ruclips.net/video/lPMXJf32vuU/видео.html
ears phones fix your volume problem
Is she improving here?
violingal13 according to an interview I listened to, yes, she was.
And 11 years later, I reply... :D
sounds like it...improvising you mean
Why is there a cross in the background?
This is beautiful but U think it would be better to get an actual fiddler...
HILARY MAKES NOBLE EVERYTHING SHE TOUCHES, PERFORMS, EXPLAINS!
Hilary is too talented for this guy.

Colin lol. He must be joking. Josh is literally the second greatest songwriter to ever have lived

What an amazingly bad take
