Description
Melody fanatic Hannah Schneider isn't just the result of a colourful family history. She's also driven by almost frightening courage from the time she broke with her internationally renowned family's classical traditions, until she decided to take the stage as a woman alone with a pile of instruments. But she's also endowed with the delicate soul of an artist. Now, on her third album, she brings all the contrasting threads together for the first time and that has set her and her music free.
Over and over, people ask Hannah Schneider where she's from. The short answer is "Denmark". The longer one is that her grandfather was famed violinist Alexander Schneider, a member of the celebrated Budapest String Quartet. Alexander found himself in the United States in the 1930s but his son migrated to Denmark when he met a Danish violinist, and the couple had a daughter - Hannah Schneider. As you might expect, Hannah inherited a bit of everything from her family the street performer's free thinking, the artist's sensitivity, a Russian temperament and a good dose of American ingenuity.
"It's been a huge conflict, and I've always been extremely sensitive. I let everything in the room affect me, but I'm not, like, this nice little quiet girl. I'm incredibly temperamental and I'll go home and smash things. And when it comes to music, I'm always making all these drastic decisions".
