Her music style is self-described as "violin techno-acoustic fusion" as several of her albums prominently feature the techno style.
Vanessa-Mae was born in Singapore to a Thai father (Varaprong Vanakorn) and a Chinese mother (Pamela Tan). After her parents separated, her mother married Englishman Graham Nicholson, and the family moved to England when Vanessa-Mae was four years old. She grew up in London and is a British citizen.
Vanessa-Mae began playing piano at the age of three and violin at five. She was relatively famous in the United Kingdom throughout her childhood making regular appearances on television (for example on "Blue Peter") mostly involving classical music and conservative style. According to Guinness World Records, she is the youngest soloist to record both the Ludwig van Beethoven and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky violin concertos, a feat she accomplished at the age of thirteen. During this time she attended the Francis Holland School in central London.
Vanessa-Mae made her international professional debut at the Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival in Germany in 1988, and also during 1988 made her concerto debut on stage with the Philharmonia Orchestra in London.
On entering adolescence Vanessa-Mae broke away from her traditional classical influences and became known for her flashy, sexy style appearing in music videos in stylish outfits. She appeared on the Janet Jackson album The Velvet Rope playing a violin solo on the song "Velvet Rope". Her first pop-style album, The Violin Player, was released in 1995, and is still regarded as one of the best works of her career.
In April 2006, Vanessa-Mae was ranked as the wealthiest young entertainer under 30 in the UK in the Sunday Times Rich List 2006, having an estimated fortune of about £32 million ($64 million) stemming from concerts and record sales of over an estimated 10 million copies worldwide, which is an unprecedented achievement for a young female violinist.
Vanessa-Mae most often uses one of two types of violins, a Guadagnini acoustic violin or a Zeta Jazz model electric violin. The Guadagnini was made in 1761, and was purchased by her parents at an auction for £150,000. It was stolen in January 1995, but was recovered by the police two months later. She once fell and broke it, but it was repaired. It is currently valued at almost $500,000. In addition, she uses one of two Zeta Jazz Model electric violins, one of which is white and the other one of which features decals of the United States flag. In addition to these two main violins, she sometimes buys violins and resells them later, giving the proceeds to charity.
A minor planet, discovered in 1990 orbiting the Sun, was named "10313 Vanessa-Mae" after her.

this music breaks my heart... what was Vivaldi feeling, or going through, that he wrote this beauty? A person cannot write something so incredible without actually feeling the emotions... I don't know, it's just incredible!!!!

the original is best

I feel the same, I'm think Vivaldi has some conexión maybe with God or something else.

completely objective, in comparison to most famous violinists, Vanessa Mae is extremely bad.

+Gigs 98 well you have to consider something, as you can read in the title these are "original" four seasons, the word original can have 2 meanings: 1) back to the original composition (so back to baroque ages, with small orchestra mostly chamber with more freedom for interpretation by the artists) 2)original in the sense that is her original interpretation. Both of them apply to this i guess but this is my personal opinion.
I love her way of playing and i consider her a great violinist with a lot of expressiviness
