It seemed obvious to me that in the video she was playing along with a pre-recorded take being played on a portable stereo, and so the sounds she was making were not being recorded. The tone of the violin did not change with camera angles, her pivoting, or her costume changes. The ambient background noise was--non-existent. The synch was not perfect, in any case.
About the synch: Yeah, I know about dropped-frame-rate time code and YT audio/video conflicts, but--this is one of the world's major media conglomerates. If anyone should be able to get such things right, they should.
Also, I think you could see hard compression but IMHO it is very hard to see musically tasteful compression on a graph or even hear it. Taking 1.5 dB off the peaks without flat-topping them I think would not be apparent later on to a third party.
BTW, in those shots she reminds me of Jane Olivor when she first started out.
