I just encountered the Fancy Fiddlers via YouTube and then their Web site:

http://www.fancyfiddlers.nl/

Coosje Wijzenbeek must be a remarkable teacher, and Shin Sihan is a young wizard on the violin.

(I'm often behind the curve on what's happening, but I searched violinist.com on "fancy fiddlers" and didn't find a discussion. If I missed one, would appreciate the link.)
