Academy of St Martin in the Fields with Joshua Bell

Presented by Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts

Joshua Bell playing his violin centered around the Academy of St Martin in the Fields musicians.

The Academy of St Martin in the Fields stands as one of the premier chamber orchestras, celebrated for its fresh and brilliant interpretations of the world’s greatest orchestral music.

Formed by Sir Neville Marriner in 1958 and currently led by Joshua Bell, the ensemble continues to push the boundaries of player-directed performance with its distinctive, polished, and refined sound. Known for his ability to cast familiar works in a new light, Bell takes on Brahms’s iconic Violin Concerto, an elusive and formidable test of virtuosity. The program also features Schumann’s “Spring,” a work brimming with optimism and renewal, capturing the composer’s joyful embrace of the season’s awakening.
