Overview

Joshua Bell’s poetic artistry flows from the exquisite beauty and phenomenal virtuosity of his music-making.

The Boston Herald hit the mark when it identified him as ‘the greatest American violinist active today’. His wholehearted interpretations are rooted in respect for the great traditions of violin playing and, in particular, the priceless legacy of the Russian-Jewish School of performance.

Joshua Bell is joined by Alessio Bax, a kindred spirit whose performances as soloist and chamber musician prompted The New Yorker to describe him as ‘perhaps the most elegant of today’s young pianists’.
