Analysis of Vanessa Mae's playing style

[VanessaMaeFan18]

Why is Vanessa Mae such a phenomanal violin player?!! Out of all the violin players I listen to, I think shes on top. She is good as Itzhak Perlman! I listend to the Devils Trill Sonata; her interperetation of it, and it was out of this world. It had a dark kind of feeling b/c of the organ playing on the background- which had a dark romantic kind of feeling as well. Here is something I made.....

VM isthe violinqueen but is also the Paganini playing machine! I love the piece Storm! I wish i could blast it loud in my dorm! I listen to her music in my room, the car, and in the school halls. I wish i could have seen her live at the Royal Albert hall! The Devils Trill Sonata, how nice, but yet dark; I wish I can play her songs at the parks so everyone can hear me play, which would make my day. Vanessa Mae is so cool, looking at her playing her Gundangi violin makes me want to play violin by the swimming pool. Hearing her play through my headphones causes me anguish. I wish I can listen to her more in my Aston Martin Vanquish. Im driving on the Autobahn in my BMW while hearing VM on the background as if it was a silent movie; Her playing Red Hot on the background people would hear. That song is the best on her album, "The Violin Player", that was released last year. I hope I can learn violin for fun, but that has not begun. I want to play in concerts you hear, but I hope to play violin and propose to my wife in the next few years. VM is my musical isnpiriation and no, this is no exaggeration. VM is really talented you see, but there are many Vanessa Mae wannabes. Listen to Vanessa Mae you hear; buy the album, "Storm", the best album of the year!

Well my favourite among Vanessa-Mae's video clips is probable 'I Am A Doun,' for the great artistical design, the setting, because Vanessa-Mae's wonderful silk dress that floats so nicely around her with her movements, and because Vanessa-Mae's heavy make-up that really looks fantastic on her.

For my choice of which of her music is my favourite, I must pass. I like all the music equally and it depends on my mood to what I want to listen to.

[VanessaMaeFan18]

yeah, that poll was kind of Bias. I LOVE ALL HER SONGS AND VIDEOS TOO!!! Have you been to any of her concerts?

Hi VanessaMaeFan18,

I've seen Vanessa-Mae in concert already 6 times; I suppose that mnakes me a veteran!! I have been at her following concert:

1998 The Hague: Storm On World Tour
1999 Hamburg: Tho Original Four Seasons Tour
2001 Zurich: Live@sunset festival (Tour For Change)
2001 Berlin: Tour For Change
2004 London: Choreography Tour
2005 Dresden: Choreography Tour

My reviews and stories are on my website and that photos that I made at 4 concert are there too, see:

Concert reviews with photos

I preserve wonderful memeories on all these occasion and I hope certainly to see her again asap!

Did you see her already live in concert yourself?

I am a little lost in the poll.

I would say for videos:
Doun (music video)
Royal Albert (concert)
Violin Player (album)
Contradanza/Aurora/Roxanes Veil (song)

but

I have very high hopes for the next if it is electronica based. That and new age are my favourite genres at this time.

I think I kind of understand your poll

I selected option 1 because

a)The Violin Fantasy is up there!
b)Storm is Great also
c)You can not have Im a Doun

[Xanthippe]

Yeah I think all those items should have separate options to choose.

Anyway, I guess it is best to simple post your choice in a message.
