Violinspiration is a jazz album by legendary violinist Stéphane Grappelli and the Diz Disley Trio, originally recorded in March 1975.

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4½ stars and stated:”Violinist Stephane Grappelli teamed up with the perfectly complementary Diz Disley Trio for a spirited program of standards on this LP. Even if he has played some of these songs (such as “Shine” and “Ain’t Misbehavin'”) a countless numbers of times through the years, Grappelli never loses enthusiasm nor runs out of new variations. This LP will be hard to find but rewards anyone who can acquire a copy.”
