Enjoy a special holiday show with Black Violin.

Composed of two classically trained string instrumentalists — Kevin “Kev Marcus” Sylvester and Wilner “Wil B” Baptiste — the duo Black Violin combines a daunting array of musical styles and influences to produce a signature sound embracing elements of classical, hip-hop, rock, rhythm & blues and bluegrass.

Last year, the group launched the Black Violin Foundation Inc., a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering youth by providing access to quality music programs in their community. BVF believes that music and access to music programs should not be determined by race, gender, or socio-economic status. Black Violin Foundation’s inaugural program the Musical Innovation Grant for Continuing Education will provide scholarships to young music students to attend a program of their liking that fosters musical creativity and innovation.

This is an “all-ages” concert.
