The Auction was held in the stunning setting of the former GLC Debating Chamber within The Movieum, it was preceded by a dynamic and glamorous performance by internationally acclaimed electric violin duo FUSE, who showcased their special commissioned arrangements of hit songs made famous by the world of film.
FUSE is an exciting musical collaboration combining the talents of Linzi Stoppard and Ben Lee. Acclaimed violinists in their own right, Linzi and Ben together share a real passion and desire to popularise classical music. FUSE are the electric string act of the moment, already credited with "raising the bar for a new breed of electric violinists"
FUSE's debut album due out this spring features a contemporary collection of well-known hits. Linzi & Ben have arranged the album with the aim of bridging the void between classical and pop music and of making the electric violin more accessible to mainstream audiences.
