Joshua Bell, violin and Larisa Martínez, soprano | Voice & the Violin

Evoking the spirit of the 18th-century salon and the informality of the modern-day house concert, husband and wife duo Joshua Bell and Larisa Martínez present their innovative program Voice & the Violin. "Our concept for the Voice & the Violin began during the pandemic while we were quarantined and finding new ways to collaborate and enjoy music together" says the couple. "Although finding repertoire written specifically for violin and voice can be a challenge, we discovered and fell in love with the gems featured on this program." The music ranges from beloved classical art song and opera to musical theatre and selections by Puerto Rican Spanish composers. Martínez's rich soprano intertwines with Bell's soaring violin as the couple joyfully shares the stage and their love of making music together.
