My next new CD is the 2004 BBC Young Musician of the Year, Nicola Benedetti playing works by Ralph Vaughan Williams and John Tavener. In my opinion this is a stunning CD and I have rarely heard the violin sound better.

"The Lark Ascending" composed by Ralph Vaughan Williams and "Song for Atene (version for solo violin and strings)", "Dhyana" and "Lalishri" all composed by John Tavener. All where performed by Nicola Benedetti (violin) with The London Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Andrew Litton.
