Black Violin Will Return to Memphis' Orpheum Theatre, 2/28

Black Violin returns to the Orpheum Theatre on Friday, February 28th at 6:30 PM. Virtuoso violinists Kev and Wil B will inspire audiences once again as they prove that their hearts are as big and soulful as their sound.

Presented by the Orpheum Theatre's Family Series, Black Violin is back to raise the roof sky-high with a funky fusion of classical, jazz, hip-hop, blues and R&B. Joining Kev and Wil B are DJ TK on the turntables, Beatdown on Drums and Joe Cello on Cello. Black Violin composes a concert of booming new beats, classic favorites, and cool pop covers. With superstars Alicia Keys, Kanye West, Akon, Diddy and Linkin Park singing their praises, Black Violin smashes musical stereotypes and will enthrall fans of both Bach and Beyoncé. Black Violin is recommended for all ages.
