Vanessa Mae - Destiny
The seductive Vanessa and her violin with a dance beat. This from the album Subject to Change.
Born in Singapore on October 27, 1978 Vanessa-Mae moved to London with her family when she was four and began classical violin studies the following year.
She made her professional debut on the international stage at the 1988 Schleswig-Holstein Festival in 1988, the same year she made her concerto debut in the U.K. with London's Philharmonia Orchestra.
She became the youngest violinist ever to record the Tchaikovsky and Beethoven violin concertos and a world tour with the London Mozart Players during the Mozart bicentennial year won her great reviews from international critics.
By the time she hit her teens she had three classical albums to her credit, but it was classic pop crossover album 'The Violin Player' that turned her into a multi-million-selling phenomenon.
Since her career took off, Vanessa has enjoyed worldwide sales of over 8 million, earning more than 40 international platinum awards.
