I've seen this artilcle too, it is very interesting indeed.

Our Vanessa-Mae is called the best-known musician in the filed of crossover and modern classical interpretations.

The article also recognises the Dutch violinist Andre Rieu for his renewing style of performing classical dance music and waltzes by composers like Strauss.

Rieu has enormour success primarily in The Netherlands and Germany, but also in the UK, Japan and other countries. He brings his music to a wide audience of 10,000 to 20,000 in large concert halls, in an atmosphere of sheer joy making it one big party where couples go on the floor to dance.

Andre Rieu is not my style, but his concerts are an unforgettable event to a lot of people.
