SUMMARY:Joshua Bell & Larisa Martinez
DESCRIPTION:Husband-and-wife duo Joshua Bell and Larisa Martínez present The Voice and the Violin\, a genre-spanning program exploring art song\, opera\, musical theater\, and works by Puerto Rican and Spanish composers—an acclaimed collaboration presented at major festivals and concert halls nationwide. \n“Bell and Martínez’s musical sensibilities were evenly matched\, the soprano’s delicate voice fitting well with the violinist’s effortless playing… the program retained the feel of an intimate\, 19th-century salon\, yet didn’t pass up the chance for big\, impressive moments.” — Cleveland Classical \nJOSHUA BELL\, violin\nWith a career spanning nearly four decades\, GRAMMY® Award–winning violinist Joshua Bell CBE is one of the most celebrated and influential artists of his era. He has performed with virtually every major orchestra in the world and maintains an extraordinarily active career as a soloist\, recitalist\, chamber musician\, conductor\, and Music Director of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields. In 2025\, Bell was awarded an honorary Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) by King Charles III for services to music. \nHighlights of Bell’s 2024–25 season include the release of two new albums: Thomas De Hartmann Rediscovered\, featuring the world premiere recording of De Hartmann’s Violin Concerto with the INSO-Lviv Orchestra\, and an album of Mendelssohn piano trios recorded with longtime collaborators Jeremy Denk and Steven Isserlis. An avid recitalist\, Bell tours internationally and performs his popular Voice and the Violin program with soprano Larisa Martínez throughout North America. As a guest soloist\, he appears with leading orchestras including the New York Philharmonic\, Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra\, Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France\, and Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra\, while also conducting and performing with major ensembles across Europe and the U.S. \nBell has served as Music Director of the Academy of St Martin in the Fields since 2011\, following a relationship with the orchestra that dates back to 1986. His recordings with the Academy include GRAMMY®-nominated and chart-topping releases\, and his contract has been extended through the 2027–28 season. \nA champion of new music\, Bell has commissioned and premiered works by John Corigliano\, Edgar Meyer\, Jessie Montgomery\, Jennifer Higdon\, Kevin Puts\, and others.

He continues to inspire audiences worldwide through performances\, recordings\, education initiatives\, and innovative collaborations across musical genres. \nLARISA MARTINEZ\, soprano\nInternationally acclaimed soprano Larisa Martínez is widely recognized as one of the most compelling vocal artists of her generation. Born and raised in Puerto Rico\, she is praised for her warm lyric coloratura voice\, expressive musicianship\, and captivating stage presence. Opera News lauded her portrayal of Rossini’s Corinna (Il viaggio a Reims)\, writing that “Ms. Martínez cut an elegant figure\, her deportment on stage matching that of her singing.” \nMs. Martínez has appeared in leading operatic roles including Violetta (La Traviata) with Wichita Grand Opera\, Sophie (Werther) alongside Piotr Beczala\, and Maria (West Side Story) conducted by Lawrence Foster at Festival Napa Valley\, sharing the stage with tenor Michael Fabiano.

She is a proud artistic resident of Turnaround Arts\, championing arts education nationwide. \nPETER DUGAN\, piano\nPianist Peter Dugan is celebrated for performances that combine virtuosity\, versatility\, and bold musical imagination. His debut appearances with Michael Tilson Thomas and the San Francisco Symphony were described by the Los Angeles Times as “stunning” and by the San Francisco Chronicle as “fearlessly athletic.” Heard nationwide as the host of NPR’s From the Top\, Dugan maintains an active career as a soloist\, recitalist\, and chamber musician across North America and abroad. \nA sought-after multi-genre artist\, Dugan has collaborated with musicians and artists ranging from Itzhak Perlman\, Renée Fleming\, and Joshua Bell to Jesse Colin Young and Glenn Close.
