However, to me photography is an artform. Realy just captured moments for everyone to recognize or relate to. You certainly manged to do just that.

It almost works, but it doesn't quite come together. The framing is a bit off. Since you've chosen to show the violinist out of context, making the framing a bit tighter by losing a little of the open space above the musician's head seems, to my eye, strengthen the composition. Additionally, the rim of his glasses cuts right through his eyes, lessening the impact of his unique expression and giving him an almost cartoon-like character. The bow crossing his face as it does also detracts from his expression. Further, when photographing musicians and performers you want to capture the peak moment of an action. I don't think you've done that here, and the result is a rather "flat" snapshot rather than a powerful or at least strong and interesting portrait or character study. B&W might improve the shot considerably, IMO. Looking at this shot I keep wondering what the other dozen or so frames might be like.
