Rachel Barton Pine
As a violinist with a wide range of musical interests, Rachel Barton Pine has her hands in several projects at any given time, and her skillful, communicative musicianship also gives her a broader audience appeal than many strictly classical-oriented musicians. Pine has a growing recording catalog, most notably on the Cedille Records label. Her repertoire spans music from the Baroque through the present day, including several on commission, and she has also ventured into the realm of rock & roll.
Born on October 11, 1974, in Chicago, Rachel Barton (Pine was added following her 2004 marriage) began playing the violin at age three and, at ahe seven, gave her first public concert. She made her debut with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra at age ten. She had an impressive roster of teachers, including Roland and Almita Vamos, Ruben Gonzalez, Elmira Darvarova, and Werner Scholz. In the early '90s, she won a few international prizes, and every performance and her first recording -- Homage to Sarasate (1994) -- pointed to a promising career. However, it was temporarily stalled in 1995 when Pine was in a train accident that resulted in the loss of one leg and severe injury to the other. Following her recovery and rehabilitation, she quickly resumed an active concert schedule, regularly appearing with major American orchestras and with many of the leading conductors: Zubin Mehta, Charles Dutoit, and Neeme Järvi, among others. Her first recording following her accident was Franz Liszt: Works for Violin and Piano, featuring pianist Thomas Labé, and issued on the Dorian label.
Since then, Pine has made many recordings, mainly on the Cedille Records and Avie labels, and often makes recital tours to support her albums. Her solo violin albums include Capricho Latino, Bach's Sonatas and Partitas, and Bel Canto Paganini. She also commissioned new solo dance suites from Bruce Molsky, Darol Anger, Billy Childs, and Daniel Bernard Roumain, which she premiered in the 2016-17 season. Violin Concertos by Black Composers of the 18th & 19th Centuries, Scottish Fantasies, and concertos by Glazunov and Montsalvatge are among her recordings. She partnered with pianist Matthew Hagle for an album of music by American violinist Maud Powell and for Violin Lullabies, both of which are complemented by her editions of the scores, published by Carl Fischer, which has also issued Pine's own compositions and concerto cadenzas.
Pine also performs and records with John Mark Rozendaal and David Schrader as Trio Settecento. That interest in Baroque and earlier music also leads Pine sometimes to play the viola d'amore or rebec. In these ventures, Pine has often collaborated with her daughter, Sylvia Pine, who is also a violinist. At the other end of the spectrum, Pine has been a fan of rock and heavy metal since she was a teenager. She has collaborated with Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante on projects, has been interviewed by rock radio stations, and created an orchestral program called "Shredding with the Symphony," that mixes music by the likes of Van Halen, AC/DC, and Black Sabbath, with Bruch, Vivaldi, and Sibelius, among others. In 2023, Pine was heard on a recording of Malek Jandali's Concertos, performing the composer's Violin Concerto, and she issued the album Dependent Arising, which featured Shostakovich's Violin Concerto No. 1, Op. 77, and Earl Maneein's concerto for violin and orchestra that provided the album's title. The latter marked Pine's 24th release on Cedille Records.
In addition, Pine also launched the Rachel Barton Pine Foundation in 2001 to assist young musicians through various programs and partnerships, which she was still operating as of the mid-2020s. She performs on a Joseph Guarnerius del Gesu (Cremona 1742) instrument, known as the "ex-Bazzini, ex-Soldat," on lifetime loan from her patron. She also uses a 1770 Nicolò Gagliano I violin for some Baroque and Classical period works.
