“Skyfall” (2013 / 2014)

This is an excellent version of the theme song from the James Bond film “Skyfall” – composed by Adele.   

With William Joseph on piano and backed by various other musicians, Caroline Campbell transforms the violin far beyond the bounds of a typical classical or baroque instrument.

And we listeners are treated to a magnificent performance that gets our feet tapping and our adrenaline pumping.   (Image source)
