And this one inspired me to buy my first classical CD...



I took this photo after seeing her at the Royal Festival Hall. After a 90-minute recital and a solid hour of signing autographs, she still smiled at me and thanked me for going to the concert. I thought that was very sweet  Smiley

It amazes me that they are all still "girls" --- hasn't a single one been through puberty? Huh  Angry

In my part of the world I'm still a "lad" at 42, so "girl" sounds fine to me...  Tongue

Wow, good memory!

Yes. The violinist (Alina Pogostkina) had won the 2006 Sibelius Competition, so that seemed like good enough credentials... I don't know enough about violinists to choose in any other way  Wink
