STOP PRESS! Belarus’ Maimuna Murasjko HAS BROKEN A WORLD RECORD this afternoon at the Eurovision Press Centre!!

Fresh off the stage from rehearsing at the Wiener Stadthalle, Belarusian violinist Maimuna broke the world record for the fastest violin playing during her press conference this afternoon. Here she is claiming the world record – and we think you’ll agree, it’s amazing! Very well done Maimuna! Congratulations!

Here is the previous World Record holder David Garrett gaining his title in 2008 – also very impressive!

Maimuna will be taking to the stage on May 19th with fellow artist Uzari as they sing “Time” for Belarus.

With a world record under their belts, do Maimuna and Uzari have what it takes to bring Belarus into their 3rd consecutive Eurovision final? Can Belarus claim a world record AND their first ever Eurovision victory in as many days?!

Let us know what you think!
