Nicola Benedetti

In this episode of Last, Past & Blast, Charlotte speaks with Grammy Award-winning Scottish violinist, Nicola Benedetti . We'll hear how music brought Nicola to tears when she was just six years old; how she’s not the classical musician sat in the corner, but is the first one up on the dance floor; plus, how she coped when her violin kept slipping off her shoulder during a performance in 40 degree heat!
