About this performance

Husband-and-wife duo Joshua Bell and Larisa Martínez present Voice and the Violin, exploring repertoire from classical art song and opera to musical theater and selections by Puerto Rican and Spanish composers.  

The married couple said, “Our concept for this program began during the pandemic, while we were quarantined and finding new ways to collaborate and enjoy music together. Although finding repertoire written specifically for violin and voice can be a challenge, we discovered and fell in love with these gems.”

Cleveland Classical wrote, “Bell and Martínez’s musical sensibilities were evenly matched, the soprano’s delicate voice fitting well with the violinist’s effortless playing. … Though the program retained the feel of an intimate, 19th-century salon, Bell and Martínez didn’t pass up the chance for some big, impressive moments.”

Grammy Award-winning violinist Joshua Bell is one of the most celebrated artists of his era, having performed with virtually every major orchestra in the world. Puerto Rican opera singer Larisa Martínez has graced many of the world’s top opera and concert stages.
