It'a a hot, sunny, sultry afternoon in Fairview. What do my ears hear as I ride through the back alleys in search of cans, and bottles? Well, let's listen -- cars, people, lawn mowers, birds -- and one viola. Surely Fairview is the only neighbourhood on Earth where you can bin for bottles to musical accompaniment!
Sure enough, in a back alley, a woman is standing in a parking lot, playfully plucking a viola. Nicole is getting some face time with the Sun, and practising for a gig next Tuesday, when she'll be joining friends on stage at a local bistro. Looks like she's just fiddling around, but Nicole is a professional musician -- "a versatile violinist, composer and singer," as she writes on her Web site. She's also teaches music. Through stringalliance.com. She offers "Progressive Music Instruction For All Ages and Levels ... Specializing in Violin and Fiddle." Click on the images to enlarge them.
