Haitian-American violinist, composer, performer, and band leader, Daniel Bernard Roumain (DBR) is “as omnivorous as a contemporary musician can get,” (New York Times). A sonic pioneer, DBR’s genre-bending compositions have made him the darling of the concert hall and club circuit alike. His genius for fusing classical music, hip-hop beats, concert violin, and progressive electronic beats, has led to collaborations with everyone from The Sphinx Symphony Orchestra and Philip Glass to DJ Spooky, Bill T. Jones, 2 Live Crew and Lady Gaga. A thoroughly modern master, he channels both Paganini and Prince with equal aplomb for a thoroughly classical-urban sound.
