The US violinist Hilary Hahn, who has withdrawn from the BBC Proms and other festivals, will not be back before November.
She explains:
Dear Fans and Friends,
While I thought I was fully recovered from my injury last season, I’m not. I am so sad to say that I must cancel my performances through November. I’m proud of the year of hard work it took to get back to the stage. It was amazing to play music with colleagues and for audiences again.
This time, I’ll be pursuing a more aggressive treatment. I have a great support team in place: they are optimistic and the prognosis is good. I have a lot more left to say on the violin and I’m not giving up! I will miss you and I hope to see you all soon.
Thank you for all of your support and for being so wonderful for so long!
