music plays well, i am very pleased to say we can now speak to the violinist, alison balfour, who performedfeel doing that? well, it was a privilege. i felt honoured to be playing with rosy after all this time. it was extraordinary to see her reaction, to see what was possible, not just for see her reaction, to see what was possible, notjust for rosy but for possibly many other people. tell us more about her before the accident, and yourfriendship. more about her before the accident, and your friendship. we weren't best friends. she was a bit younger than me. but we were all together in the orchestra, and we were all violinists together. when she had this accident, we all felt utterly broken, and it took a long time to get over that. people will know, of course, that listening to music can be transformational for your feelings. how much do you think it has meant to her to do this? well, i hope it has meant quite a lot to her. her reaction when we were doing the recording was wonderful to see. she looked so happy. she was smiling, and she had a look of total exhilaration, i have to say. and
