I think you have the answer wrong. It shows a cello in the picture but the text states:
as he discovers Nathaniel Anthony Ayers (Oscar® winner Jamie Foxx), a former classical music prodigy, playing his violin on the streets of L.A.:hello:number 173 - THIS WILL BE MINE IN 2010: 1) A HOLIDAY 2) BOOK VOUCHERS 3) SONY E-READER/KINDLE2010: Wedding reception venue, 15kg dog food, 2 x t-shirts, book, Ozzy CD0 -

I agree wtih CynikaWIKI wrote:The Soloist is based on the true story of Nathaniel Ayers (Jamie Foxx), a musical prodigy who develops schizophrenia during his second year at Juilliard School. Ayers becomes homeless and plays a two-stringed violin in the streets of downtown Los Angeles. One day Steve Lopez (Robert Downey Jr.), a LA Times Columnist, meets Nathanial and decides to write a newspaper column for the Los Angeles Times about Nathaniel Ayers about how he is homeless. An old woman takes sympathy and sends Steve a cello for Nathaniel to play. In attempting to help Ayers, Lopez is forced to grapple personally with the complex issues and frustrations surrounding the thousands of mentally ill who are homeless on the streets of L.A.
