​Back in the day, violinists were side lined or labelled as classical musicians, but a number have recently grabbed the spotlight with their intense, soulful music and made their abstract mark in the world. The music produced by their skill and grit is classical, practically sensational and makes the listener’s intense emotions resurface.
 
So, if you enjoy passionate and fiery music, we have made the list of the top 5 intense violinists for you.
