Violin virtuoso Itzhak Perlman, one of the world’s few classical musicians to wield superstar status, will play the Tobin Center’s H-E-B Performance Hall on February 21.

From his Grammy winning solo performances to his contribution to award-winning film scores, the 75-year-old Perlman is recognized as his instrument’s reigning virtuoso. He’s been hosted by the George W. Bush White House and performed during President Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration, among other high-profile gigs.

Perlman’s San Antonio show follows his post-pandemic return to live performances which includes numbers ranging from Bruch’s Violin Concerto No. 1 to the theme of John Williams’ Schindler’s List soundtrack.

Tickets are available on the Tobin Center’s website. Pre-sale for Tobin members is available now, while tickets go on sale Friday for non-members. 

$49.50-$189.50, 7:30 p.m., Tuesday, February 21, H-E-B Performance Hall at the Tobin Center, 100 Auditorium Circle, (210) 223-8624, tobincenter.org
