Enjoy “Joshua Bell”.

Joshua Bell

My first focus on his music was watching the movie Ladies in Lavender. It was written by Nigel Hess, a British screenwriter and composer, and directed by Charles Dance and released in 2004. 

Ladies in Lavender

My first focus on his music was watching the movie Ladies in Lavender. It was written by Nigel Hess, a British screenwriter and composer, and directed by Charles Dance and released in 2004. 

I believe it is important to understand the plot of the film before listening to the music, as the violin sound in the background music throughout the film is intertwined with the spirit of the film.

The story of “Ladies in Lavender” is set in 1936 in a picturesque coastal fishing village in Cornwall, England. Andoria, a violinist traveling from Poland to the United States, is caught in a storm and sails to the fishing village. He is met by his older sisters, Janet and Ursula. They feed him healthy. However, the arrival of a young man talented in music disrupts the sisters’ peaceful life and the community in which they live.

Olga Danilov, the sister of Boris Danilov, a well-known violinist who comes to the village on holiday, becomes interested after hearing Andrea play the violin. Olga writes a letter to her older sisters, telling them who she is and that she would like to introduce her brother to Andrea. Janet realizes that her sister has a crush on Andrea and burns the letter instead of giving it to him. As time goes on, Olga and Andrea get closer, and one day Andrea finds out about the article and angrily scolds the older sisters about it. Andrea then realizes that Ursula has feelings for her, apologizes for being angry, and they reconcile.

Olga tells her brother about Andrea’s talent and asks him to meet Andrea in London. When she meets Andrea Olga to discuss her brother’s letter, she tells him that they have to get off the train immediately because her brother is only in London 24 hours a day. Although Andrea cares deeply for the sisters, he knows this is his chance to start a career and he leaves with Olga without saying goodbye to them. A friend says he saw sisters Andrea and Olga standing on the train, worried that something had happened to him. Ursula is worried that she will never see him again, and Janet comforts her as much as she can. Andrea then sends a letter with a picture painted by Olga thanking them for saving her life. The sisters travel to London to attend Andrea’s first public concert in Britain, while the rest of the village listens to the radio. The subtle human emotions that pervade this whole story are embedded in the viewer’s heart by the subtle melody patterns of the violin played in the background music. The feeling of young Andrea in the mind of the elderly Ursula was aesthetically pleasing and powerfully ingrained in my mind as I watched the film, which prompted me to look for that violinist. Joshua Bell, an American fiddle player, was the violinist who brought the romantic fantasy of the film to the audience. The feeling of young Andrea in the mind of the elderly Ursula was aesthetically pleasing and powerfully ingrained in my mind as I watched the film, which prompted me to look for that violinist. Joshua Bell, an American fiddle player, was the violinist who brought the romantic fantasy of the film to the audience. The feeling of young Andrea in the mind of the elderly Ursula was aesthetically pleasing and powerfully ingrained in my mind as I watched the film, which led me to look for that violinist. Joshua Bell, an American fiddle player, was the violinist who brought the romantic fantasy of the film to the audience.

Joshua Bell was born on December 9, 1967, in Bloomington, Indiana. At the age of four, Bell received his first violin, which he played with a rubber band attached to a drawer. At the age of 12, he attended the Meadow Mount Music Camp in Westport, New York. There he met Joseph Gingold, a renowned lecturer at the University of Indiana, who later became his mentor. At the age of 14, Bell began his orchestra, Ricardo Mutti and the Philadelphia Orchestra. He became the youngest soloist in the orchestra. He made his first recording when he was 18 years old. Appeared as a soloist, small bands and orchestra and conductor. Bell began to earn a number of honors.

In 2007, Bell received the prestigious Avery Fisher Prize and later became a Senior Lecturer at Jacobs School of Music at the University of Indiana. His recordings that year included the two-CD album The Essential Joshua Bell (with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra led by pianist Jeremy Denk and Marine Alsop). Academy Award-winning concert by John Corrigliano for the film The Red Violin (1998), in which Bell plays the violin. In 2011, Bell was named music director of the St. Martin’s Academy in the Fields Chamber of Commerce, founded by British violinist and conductor Neville Mariner.

In 2007, Joshua Bell engaged in street music, or baskering, to test the public response to his classical music. But no one counted on him. Then in 2014 he also engaged in street music and thousands of people rocked around him.

He is currently one of the greatest violinists in the world and has so far released over 40 classical music albums.

    I was educated at Ananda College, Colombo for twelve years as a child and then studied drama, photography and journalism and later chose journalism as my career. He entered the media as an amateur writer and photographer and was a news photographer for a national newspaper.

    Thereafter I became the Sri Lankan News Photographer for the International Reuters News Service. Under this, I received specialised training in international media services in Hong Kong and London. During that time, I was responsible for publicizing news photographs of the state of Sri Lanka and the Maldives around the world through the Reuters news service, especially near the events of the Sri Lankan civil war, and photographed areas of government forces as well as Tamil rebels. I escaped about seven fatal accidents there, and one time I was injured in a suicide bombing.
