ArcoStrum, a dynamic violin and guitar duo, brings an exciting and innovative concert experience to the Grand Theatre. Featuring violinist Strauss Shi and guitarist TY Zhang, ArcoStrum combines classical tradition with creative programming, performing music ranging from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons and Chinese traditional music to progressive rock.

Winners and Audience Prize recipients of the 2023 Concert Artists Guild Victor Elmaleh Competition, ArcoStrum has performed for audiences across North America, Asia, and Latin America. Their energetic performances, engaging stage presence, and unique combination of violin and guitar have made them one of the distinctive ensembles of the new generation.

The duo's name combines arco, the Italian word for the violin bow, and strum, the gesture of sweeping across guitar strings, reflecting their unique musical partnership.
