Default Violinist Nicola Benedetti
For all you classical aficionados (and not ), anyone heard the albums by Scottish violinist Nicola Benedetti? I've listened to a few, they're all very well recorded and her playing is incredible. She won a Grammy award in 2020 for best classical instrumental solo. She plays a 1717 Stradivarius which is worth who knows how much. Just in case you haven't....











Here's the live performance she gave at the Grammys for the piece that won her the reward. She is absolutely adorable.
