Joshua Bell
A woman from Indiana, USA, discovered that her son had taken rubber bands from around the house and stretched them across the handles of his dresser drawer to pluck out music he had heard her play on the piano.
His parents got a scaled-to-size violin for their then five-year-old son and started giving him lessons.
That kid was Joshua Bell, one of the most noted classical violinists of current times.
He appeared as a soloist with the Philadelphia Orchestra at age 14, debuted at Carnegy Hall three years later in 1985, and has since collaborated with many noted artistes.
