  • String virtuosos Kev Marcus and Wil B. of Black Violin give an outstanding performance marrying classical violin and viola, with the beats of modern hiphop, to create their own unique and infectious sound. They talk about how you can master a classical instrument and at the same time create your own unique and contemporary style, and hope they can inspire kids just like them to follow a musical path in school.
    Google Zeitgeist is a collection of talks by people who are changing the world. Hear entrepreneurs, CEOs, storytellers, scientists, and dreamers share their visions of how we can shape tomorrow.

    Went to Black Violin's concert this week, there aren't words to describe how amazing they are live!!! I was so uplifted! My daughter and I had a chance to meet them, talk to them, shake their hands, and get their autographs. They are so sweet and took their time with each child to talk with them and my daughter loved the attention. She needed some encouragement because she just started playing the violin, and now she is motivated to practice and do her best. Thank you Black Violin for inspiring me as a mother and inspiring my daughter!!!

    Remarkable young talented African-American men seeking to expose the world to a different but most enjoyable sound. I definitely love it! I play it for the next generation of music lovers in my family. Never stop being, who you are, regardless. "Change Begins with You!"

    My lovely middle school string students in LA love you guys. They especially love "Sterotypes" what a major inspiration to see their instruments played at a high level. My kids need the model you give, thank you!

    I saw them perform at The Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco in February. The show was amazing. Their version of the Brandenburg concerto breathed new life into a classic. I bought 3 of their albums when I got home. New fan here ✋🏾.

    This audience is acting like they're dead inside :/ people talking and on their cellphones, no energy. Rude low class behavior. Give it up! How can you not be moved?
