    "Lizzie Ball lit the place on fire with one of her solos" San Francisco Chronicle
    I am an independent violinist, vocalist and more recently concert curator producer, who has performed on an extensive international scale as a soloist and collaborative artist with some of the worlds leading artists. These include featured violinist with Jeff Beck in Madison Square Garden for Eric Clapton's 2013 Crossroads Festival (which can be viewed on DVD), aswell as a US wide tour as a double bill with Brian Wilson in which I performed as both violinist and vocalist. I am Nigel Kennedys concertmaster for his Orchestra of Life, completed numerous European tours, most notably with the young Palestine Strings in the BBC Proms 2013 described as "a seamless exercise in musical enchantment" by The Independent newspaper. I write my own songs and arrange music. I have been Musical Associate for New Commisson Film for the British Film Institute. I perform regularly at the famous Ronnie Scotts Jazz Club in London, in 2012 I created and founded “Classical Kicks”, a unique night of classical music performance in the upstairs venue of this club (the first classical night in the clubs 55 year history). Classical Kicks is a "brand" of classical music that has been met with critical acclaim and is perfect platform to marry exposure for up and coming artists with established artists, in which exciting new musical territory is explored crossing all genres. We will also premiere our very first Creative Thinking Workshop at the prestigious Judge Business School of Cambridge University in February 2015. My second studio album "Hasta Siempre" is available in the form of 2 EPs (Classical Kicks Records) For full details see my website www.lizzieball.com. Media appearances include BBC Radio 3, BBC TV, and most recently an interview on Bloomberg TV discussing a £5 million Stradivarius violin. http://www.bloomberg.com/video/what-a-5mil-work-of-art-stradivarius-sounds-like-DbcyAmMfQKCjwLkG1s5ubw.html
