Black Violin Tickets

This was my first time ever being at a black violin concert as well as visiting Chrysler Hall and the whole experience was absolutely amazing!!

I wasn’t sure what to expect, I’ve seen violinist bring a little something different to the music platform before, but Black Violin. Mwah! The music was fun, traditional, classical and soulful. I love how they addressed the audience, especially recognizing and connecting with the youth (future up and coming violinists). Sharing the message that violinist don’t sit on the side lines, violinist also get paid! Two young black men playing such a tiny not commonly aligned with the black community instrument bringing us to our feet, dancing and singing along. I was so honored to be in their audience and I will do it again

Super talented musician with an amazing performance.

I would definitely go ten times over. They were amazing. All of the bands as well. And taking time out to talk to the youth was awesome of them.

This was my first time to attend a performance of the Black Violins and I can guarantee it won't be my last. There are no words to describe a fantastic show by these musicians. I took my eight year old granddaughter with me and she insisted we must see them again. I must applaud these gentlemen for the message they conveyed to the children in the audience. They spoke about their love for music and how they were teased but in the end they received scholarships for college. I appreciate their emphasis to explain to the audience whatever you do continue to practice and see what happens. These musicians had the audience engaged and what a great feeling.

Im a faithful BV fan and get tickets in the orchestra pit every year. The 2024 Norfolk show was very disappointing and very different from past shows. An opening solo act was added who started at the 7:30 showtime, wasn’t announced, walked onstage, pulled out his guitar and started playing without introducing himself. His lyrics were hard to hear and the lights were on during his set. His music style was more like modern folk music (picture a young Sudanese male Joni Mitchell) but it didn’t match BV’s energy. Between songs he commented on the pleasant surprise that so many arrived early to enjoy his opening act - he actually blurted out he didn’t expect a full house so early due to CP Time…. That joke was in poor taste. In actuality, we were on time for the headliner. Since the lights were on, an audience member next to me was trying to Google him to figure out who he was and what he was saying. She found a link to him but I was so disinterested from the constant comments about his love for being black. He played from 7:30 - about 8 pm and each song in his repertoire was about the wonderful state of being Black in America. I’m black but this felt tone-deaf, redundant and poorly planned out. BV came onto the stage at 8:15, their set seemed short…. There wasn’t an intermission although one was scheduled. The show was over at 9:45. That was quite a surprise.

The show was great. The energy was positive. The Black Violin was a VIBE!!!! Sinkane was a great opening act too!!!! He was available after the show to greet guest while selling his merchandise. He was also willing to take pictures,with a smile. The show was top tier.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Black Violin performance. They were amazing. I enjoyed ALL facets of the concert. It was good to see them playing not only the R&B, Hip-Hop, and Soul music, but they also gave us a little country western (Devil Went Down to Georgia) and they effortlessly played a classical piece. I could tell all the musicians love what they do. It showed in their enthusiastic solos and collaborations. The improv was also a great part. Bring them back!!!

The Black Violins are very talented. It was an excellent performance of not just the violins, but all of the musicians. It is definitely a must see and inspiration for the whole family.

Performance was awesome.. great venue for them.. this is my second time seeing black violin and they do not disappoint.
