Here is a String Quartet cover of 'A Million Dreams' from The Greatest Showman. A String Quartet is made up of two violins (the two players to the left), viola, and a cello. 
Lindsey Stirling has over 11 million people subscribed on her YouTube account. She became famous when she started posting videos in 2004.
Yes you read the video correctly, a wiper blade playing a violin, or is it? I'm putting my neck out her a little, but I think it might be a viola, the slightly lower sounding and larger cousin on the violin. What do you think?

Playing two notes at the same on a violin is known as double stopping. The two notes here are a D and a G sharp, two notes that sounds rather nasty when combined together!
