"When The Violin" at Mechanics Hall in Worcester, MA - 2023

Vijay Gupta has performed as an international recitalist, soloist, chamber musician, and orchestral musician for over 20 years, playing his solo debut at age 11 with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Zubin Mehta.

Vijay won his first orchestral audition and joined the Los Angeles Philharmonic in 2007, when he was 19 years old - the youngest violinist to ever join a top-tier American orchestra, where he remained for 12 years.

Increasingly in demand as a soloist, curator, and chamber musician, Vijay has collaborated with the artists from the Kronos Quartet to Yo-Yo Ma and folk music legend Pete Seeger, and appears regularly with the Strings Festival in Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

He has also performed as a guest concertmaster with the Los Angeles Opera and the UK’s acclaimed Philharmonia Orchestra, and served as 2023 Artist in Residence at Music Worcester. Vijay is a founding member of the innovative Darshan Trio, and a member of Tesserae Baroque.
