But he is one just the same, even if he won't admit it. Bell's reaction to the Bowl accolade is typically self-effacing. "It's a little bit strange," he says by telephone from Porto, Portugal, where he was performing last week. "I don't feel old enough. But it's certainly an honor, and I've been enough times."

He first played the Bowl in the mid-1980s, and has returned regularly. The commitment is characteristic of his work ethic in general: He says he plays about 120 concerts a year and is on the road roughly 200 days annually. In addition to accompanying Josh Groban in a song at the event, Bell will play Camille Saint-Saens' Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso, one of the showpieces for violin and orchestra on which he has built his career.

Extractions: Cheryl North Interviews Joshua Bell Classical Music Column for September 13, 2002 ANG PREVIEW Section by Cheryl North The rarefied world of the violin, its masters and its lovers, brims with intrigue - and uncanny coincidence. Consider last night at Davies Symphony Hall. Joshua Bell, the hot young head of the world's current remarkable set of youthful violin virtuosos, performed Samuel Barber's resplendent Violin Concerto with the San Francisco Symphony on his multi-million-dollar 1713 Stradivarius Violin. But just a few feet to his right, was another multi-million-dollar instrument of great significance to Bell. The 1742 Guarneri del Jesu violin, known as the David, was cradled in the arms of SFS Concertmaster Alexander Barantschik. Named for one of its previous owners, the great 19th century virtuoso Ferdinand David, the David was the favorite instrument of the 20th century's premier virtuoso, Jascha Heifetz. Now heres the kicker. Bells most recent hit recording, the Op. 64 Violin Concerto in E Minor by Felix Mendelssohn with Sir Roger Norrington conducting the Camerata Salzburg, was actually inspired by the very David for whom Mendelssohn wrote the piece. In fact, it was this self-same violin under Barantschik's chin, with which David had premiered the Mendelssohn concerto in 1845. During a cell phone interview with Bell on Monday as he was traveling on a Los Angeles freeway to a recording studio, I told him the astonished Bell that the David' would actually be within his reach when he performed on the Davies Hall stage later in the week.
