- Rachel Barton Pine: I think for the audience
to truly appreciate this concerto,
it's not just a question
of giving all of your attention to me
with the orchestra in a supportive role,
because it is such a partnership
between my part and everybody else's part.
I think if you just take in the big picture
and listen for all the music that's happening
all around the stage, with of course,
the solo violin being at the forefront,
but almost more as a tour guide
than as, you know, just the main event.
And so, you're gonna really get a rich tapestry
of colors and textures,
and there's something very transporting about that.
