Ah well, you've missed it, but some of us didn't. Very Happy

She was performing at the Westonbirt Arboretum (open woodland park) last saturday 18th July 2009.

One of the pieces she did not play was Devil's Trill.

I've been reliably informed that this is one of the most difficult violin pieces ever written, and Vanessa performed a fast version of it with distinction & originality.

You can watch & listen to an amazing video of Devil's Trill performed by Vanessa Mae:-
