The Jazzin' Violin: 2: Miss Annabelle Lee

on BBC Radio 3

Although the violin is still considered to be something of a rarity in the field of jazz, it has made a contribution to every generation, from the days of minstrels to the 1990s. Russell Davies reflects on the history of the jazzin' violin.

The thirties saw the emergence of the Hot Club of France, featuring Stephane Grappelli.
