SCOTTISH violinist Nicola Benedetti has said she feels “so honoured” after winning a Grammy Award in Los Angeles.

Benedetti was presented with the award for Best Classical Instrumental Solo for her performance of Marsalis: Violin Concerto; Fiddle Dance Suite.

She also performed at the Grammy Awards Premiere Ceremony, playing Bye Bye Breakdown by Wynton Marsalis from his Fiddle Dance Suite, with her performance streamed live internationally.

Her Decca Classics album features recordings of two works written specially for Benedetti by Marsalis.

Meanwhile, Lewis Capaldi suffered a case of mistaken identity at the Grammys.

The Scottish singer, nominated for the Song of the Year award for his hit single Someone You Loved, tweeted: “A lady has just offered to take my seat because she thought I was one of the people who sits in the chairs to fill them when someone gets up to use the bathroom.”

Capaldi lost out in his category to Billie Eilish.
