Joshua Bell Violin Recital International Violin Maestros

Date: April 15 - 7:30 pm

Venue: National Center of the Performing Arts

Price: 80-600 yuan

Joshua Bell is one of the most celebrated violinists of his era, and his restless curiosity, passion, and multi-faceted musical interests are almost unparalleled in the world of classical music. Named the Music Director of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields in 2011, Bell is the first person to hold this post since Sir Neville Marriner formed the orchestra in 1958. Pianist Alessio Bax creates "a ravishing listening experience" with his lyrical playing, insightful interpretations, and dazzling facility. "His playing quivers with an almost hypnotic intensity," says Gramophone magazine, leading to what Dallas Morning News calls "an out-of-body experience."
