Black Violin Gives a Performance

Season 2021 Episode 3237 | 2m 33s

If you ever wondered what might happen if Bach met Biggie Smalls, let us introduce you to the Grammy-nominated duo Black Violin. A classical/hip hop hybrid, they began their musical journey in the classroom, experimenting and pushing the boundaries of genre. Their mission: smashing stereotypes and assumptions about race through their art. They join the show to discuss and to perform.
