Violin superstar husband + wife duo Noah Bendix-Balgley and Shanshan Yao are about to give Asheville the performance of a lifetime.

Happening Saturday, March 16, as part of the Asheville Symphony’s inaugural Artist Residency, Masterworks 5: Violin Virtuosi includes not one but three extraordinarily complex violin concertos, each offering a distinct musical experience.

The performance is among the highlights of the 11-part, education-focused residency, offering audiences a deeper understanding of the violin’s role in an orchestra.
