Joshua Bell with the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra

In the firmament of today’s classical stars, few shine as brightly as Joshua Bell. Elle Magazine recently classified him as “the most celebrated American-born violinist of the modern era” – and with this program, you’ll surely discover why. Joined by the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Jacques Lacombe, this evening will include Tchaikovsky’s emotionally charged musical drama, Romeo and Juliet; Ravel’s sublimely rhapsodic Tzigane for Violin and Orchestra; Grieg’s immortal (and wildly popular) Peer Gynt Suite No. 1; and the Sibelius Violin Concerto in d, that composer’s only concerto, and one that demands the kind of breathtaking virtuosity for which Bell has become known.
