Canadian-born violinist Lara St. John has been called a "high-powered soloist" by the New York Times, while the Los Angeles Times has written, "St. John brings to the stage personal charisma, an unflagging musical imagination and genuine passion." She has performed as a soloist with major orchestras around the world, and her recitals have included concert halls in New York, Boston, San Francisco, Ravinia, Washington DC, Prague, Berlin, Toronto, Montreal, and Beijing.

Lara St. John's debut CD, Bach: Works for Violin Solo, has sold over 40,000 copies and received resounding acclaim. The Chicago Tribune described Ms. St. John as having "superb technique and an irresistible vitality," while U.S. News & World Report called the recording "an exquisite performance". Her second album, "Gypsy", was described as "a sizzling display" by Gramophone, and Strad called her "an electrifying player, as deeply satisfying in Bach as she is bewitchingly seductive in Waxman's Carmen Fantasy".

Her third recording, "Bach: the Concerto Album", appeared in the "strongly recommended" section of Gramophone, and when it was released on iTunes in June 2005 it immediately became No. 1 in the classical category. Lara has also recorded for Sony Classical, and has been featured in People, U.S. News & World Report, on CNN's "Showbiz Today", and NPR's "All Things Considered", Fox News, CBC and a Bravo Special: "Live at the Rehearsal Hall." Her latest recording, Bach: The Six Sonatas and Partitas for Violin Solo, described as "awe-inducing" by the Toronto Star, was released exclusively on iTunes in September 2007.
