On Wednesday, June 11, we heard a track off of this CD specifically written for Nicola Benedetti titled "Dhyana:  A Song for Nicola" for solo violin and strings by Sir John Taverner.

 

Here are some of your reactions:

 

"Beautiful, I would very much like to hear it again."

 

"Taverner, Benedetti, et al mesmerizing. Thanks." 

"A delightful violin piece. It was lovely and very soothing, just what I needed as I get ready to go out!"
