Overview

Described by The Strad as ‘the one who will beremembered in fifty years’ time’ and praised by theBoston Herald as ‘the greatest American violinistactive today’, Joshua Bell has achieved the highestdistinction as soloist, chamber musician, recordingartist and orchestral leader.

The breadth of hismusical interests is reflected in everything from hisvast repertoire and discography of over 40 recordingsto his work as Music Director of the Academy ofSt Martin in the Fields. Bell’s mature artistry isdirected in this recital to a programme that callsfor musical and psychological insight, flights ofvirtuosity and sustained lyricism.
