The ingenious duo of Black Violin present an inspired fusion of classical and hip-hop music that crosses age, cultural and musical boundaries - and with it an incredible opportunity to inspire young people. Awarded the prestigious title of "Apollo Legends," phenomenal fiddlers Kev Marcus and Wil-B, along with mixing maestro DJ TK, have worked with the likes of Alicia Keys, P. Diddy and Lil Wayne. Black Violin encourages young people to follow their dreams by teaching them that classical music is cool!
