Black Violin is an American duo known for blending classical music with hip-hop, which comprises two classically trained musicians, violinist Kev Marcus and violist Wil B. Their unique fusion of genres not only showcases their virtuosic skills on their respective string instruments but also challenges stereotypes and preconceived notions about what classical music can be. They have sought to break down the barriers between different genres of music, aiming to create a sound that can appeal to a wide range of audiences while promoting messages of positivity and inclusion.
Since their formation in the early 2000s, Black Violin has released several albums and singles, steadily gaining recognition for their innovative approach to music. Notable releases include "Take the Stairs," which embodies their philosophy of hard work and perseverance, and live recordings from their performances in Los Angeles, CA in 2020 that capture the energetic and dynamic nature of their concerts. Over the years, they have been celebrated for their ability to push musical boundaries, as evidenced by their recent singles such as "Legends In The Making" and "Give Thanks," which continue to reinforce their status as groundbreaking artists. Through their work, Black Violin not only entertains but also educates and inspires, making them true legends in the making.
