(CNN)Scottish violinist Nicola Benedetti has lived in London for 11 years, performing at the most prestigious venues in the city and around the world.

Performing the final movement of Johann Sebastian Bach’s “Partita in D minor” on her 18th-century Stradivarius, Benedetti said she felt “humbled” by the size of the space.

“It’s interesting to play in an overwhelming space like this because you would imagine you’d feel the need to fill all of that air, and actually it does the opposite to you,” she said. “It makes you almost protective of your sound and your space.”
