Winner of the BBC Young Musician of the Year award in May 2004, Benedetti's maturity and intelligence complement her technical and musical accomplishments as a violinist.

Hi All,

Nicola received some very positive comments for her Concert performance in Edinburgh within a review in 'The Scotsman' Newspaper on Tuesday 11th September, 2007 - as follows:

Hi Andrew,

Many thanks for sharing this. I love the scans of your programme and the reviews in 'The Scotsman' . So glad you enjoyed the performance. Are you planning to go to HMV for the new CD signing?

Cheers,
Joe

Hi all,

I'm pleased to say that thanks to a fortuitously-timed phonecall from Andrew (Cheers! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif) I was able to go along to this concert, it was absolutely fantastic, and a wonderful first time for me seeing Nicola in concert. Great to see so many positive reviews for her performance in the Scotsman.

I'm planning to go along to HMV on the 24th as it's during my lunch hour and it's less than 10 minutes walk from my work! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

Best wishes

Hi all,

Managed to go along to HMV at lunchtime today where I briefly met Nicola and had a copy of her new CD signed by her! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif Not much time for photos or chat unfortunately as the place was full of other people, but it's great to have met her anyway. Right now I'm just listening to The Lark Ascending from the CD itself.

Cheers

David
