Joseph Deninzon has established himself as a
versatile, on-demand violinist and composer. A musician who transcends
many genres, he has recorded and performed with a variety of artists
including Sheryl Crow, Everclear, Alex Skolnick, Ritchie Blackmore of
Deep Purple,
Smokey Robinson, Johnny Matthis, Les Paul, Phoebe Snow, Jane Monheit,
and Robert Bonfiglio. He has appeared in Lincoln Center’s Meet the
Artist program, as a soloist with the New York Chamber Ensembles, has

Lennon International Songwriting Competition with a song he contributed
to the soundtrack for the film, What’s Up Scarlet (open
City Entertainment). His music has been featured on CMT, VH1, Comedy
Central, the Weather Channel, Food network, and National Geographic.
Mr. Deninzon has been hailed by critics as “The Jimi Hendrix of the
Violin”, because of his innovative style on the electric six and
seven-string violin and his compositions combining jazz, rock, and
world music. He has been featured in publications such as Jazziz,
Downbeat, and Relix magazine. Joe and his band, Stratospheerius, have
released three CD’s to international acclaim, and were recently named
“Best Jam Band” in the Musician’s Atlas Independent Music Awards. The
group has toured extensively and has developed a reputation for their
explosive live performances.
In addition to his many diverse projects, Mr. Deninzon has recently
made his debut with the New York City Ballet performing “Red Angels”,
based on “Maxwell’s Demon”; a piece for solo electric violin and
dancers written by Richard Einhorn.
“As at home in the world of Grappelli and O'Connor as he is in the
world of Steve Vai and Jimi Hendrix, Joe Deninzon may very well be our
next national violin treasure.”
