Joshua Bell, Violin

Society for the Performing Arts welcomes back violinist Joshua Bell.

Often referred to as the “poet of the violin,” Joshua Bell is one of the world’s most celebrated violinists, known for his breathtaking virtuosity, tone of sheer beauty and charismatic stage presence. His passion and universal appeal have earned him the rare title of “classical music superstar.”

Named Music Director of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, Bell is the first person to hold this post since Sir Neville Marriner formed the orchestra in 1958.

Bell also enjoys chamber music collaborations with artists such as Pamela Frank, Steven Isserlis, and Edgar Meyer, as well as occasional collaborations with artists outside the classical arena that include Josh Groban, James Taylor, and Sting.  

The concert will also feature Alessio Bax on piano.
