<p>Program:</p>

<p>Note: The concert on November 3 is a "Casual Friday" performance, which means that the orchestra is dressed in casual clothes and the concert is slightly abbreviated from the Thursday concert. Afterwards the audience is invited to mingle in the café with orchestra members. (Specifically the program will not feature Schubert Symphony No. 6 which will be on the Friday evening concert.)</p> <p>As he begins his 2006/07 concert season, Grammy Award-winning violinist Joshua Bell explores the world of opera and song in his new Sony Classical recording Voice of the Violin, the follow-up to his best-selling 2003 release Romance of the Violin, which Billboard Magazine named the 2004 Classical Album of the Year and Bell the Classical Artist of the Year. </p> <p>This season includes concerts at the BBC Proms, as well as appearances with the London, Boston, San Francisco, Pittsburgh, Toronto, Montreal, Dallas symphonies, the Los Angeles Philharmonic and Israel Philharmonic Orchestras, and a Spring European tour with London's Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. He will premiere a work written for him by Edgar Meyer and will tour a U.S. recital program in January.</p> <p>For over two decades, Bell has been captivating audiences worldwide, coming to national attention at age 14 with his highly acclaimed orchestral debut with Riccardo Muti and the Philadelphia Orchestra. At age 18, Bell signed with London/Decca, recording classical violin repertoire. Searching to expand his musical horizons, he joined Sony Classical in 1996, resulting in a diverse collection of albums. Bell received a Grammy Award and a Mercury Music Prize for the Nicolas Maw Violin Concerto. The Sibelius and Goldmark violin concertos received the Echo Klassik Award for Best Concerto Recording. Gershwin Fantasy, Short Trip Home and West Side Story Suite received Grammy nominations for Best Classical Crossover Album. He also collaborated with Wynton Marsalis on his spoken word children's album, Listen to the Storyteller, and Béla Fleck's Perpetual Motion, both of which won Grammy Awards. Bell recently recorded the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto with Michael Tilson Thomas conducting the Berlin Philharmonic and he has also recorded the Mendelssohn and Beethoven violin concertos.</p> <p>For three years, Bell was deeply involved in the creation of John Corigliano's Academy Award-winning score for the 1999 film The Red Violin. In 2003, Bell collaborated with Marin Alsop and the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra on the world premiere of Corigliano's Concerto for Violin and Orchestra (The Red Violin), drawn from the film score. Recently Bell, Alsop and the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra recorded this Concerto for Sony Classical and the disk, including Bell's recording of Corigliano's Sonata for Violin and Piano, is scheduled for release in 2007. </p> <p>Bell received his first violin at age four and was serious about the instrument by age 12, thanks in large part to the inspiration of renowned violinist and pedagogue Josef Gingold, who had become his beloved teacher and mentor. In 1989, Bell received an artist diploma in violin performance from Indiana University. He has been named an "Indiana Living Legend" and received the Indiana Governor's Arts Award. In 2005 he was inducted into the Hollywood Bowl Hall of Fame. </p> <p>Joshua Bell plays the 1713 Gibson ex Huberman Stradivarius.</p>
