Who else finds Jenny Oaks Baker's smile absolutely captivating? When she plays the violin, you can tell she's really feeling it; the joy is evident. (Of course, who wouldn't be filled with joy when performing or hearing the Hallelujah chorus?) I don't understand why Baker has only been nominated for a Grammy. They should just award it to her already!
