Oliver Lewis: His Fingers
Oliver Lewis, acclaimed as the ‘world’s fastest violinist,’ boasts a career that can only be described as exceptional. Over the years, Lewis has notched up a remarkable achievement by shattering the Guinness World Record for the fastest rendition of Flight of the Bumblebee. In recognition of the priceless value of his dexterous fingers in crafting these breathtaking performances, Oliver wisely chose to insure each of his digits at an impressive $100,000 apiece, resulting in a total coverage of $1 million.
Yet, behind the world-class talent and the substantial insurance policy, Oliver Lewis remains a humble and passionate performer who treasures the journey as much as the destination. In a moment of reflection, he shared his story, saying, “The first time I placed the bow on my violin, I stood there, eagerly awaiting the enchanting sounds to emerge. From that moment onwards, I’ve been coaxing the music to flow ever since.”
