Black Violin @ LPAC
 |
Returning to the LPAC after sold out performances in 2016 and 2018, the classically-trained string instrumentalists Kevin Marcus and Wilner Baptiste (Wil B) use their unique blend of classical and hip-hop music, often described as “classical boom,” to overcome stereotypes and encourage people of all ages, races and economic backgrounds to join together to break down cultural barriers. Playing a variety of compositions and unique interpretations of standard versions, Black Violin fuses R and B, soul, rock, hip-hop and classical styles with results that are both groundbreaking and astonishing. |
