An award-winning 17-year-old prodigy and regular performer on National Public Radio’s From the Top, Brown plays on a 1679 Guarneri violin loaned to him by the Stradivari Society. As the grand prize winner at the 2016 ENKOR International Competition in London, he earned the highest score in the competition’s history across all ages.

“Stunning [performances] … on an Olympian level … Brown played with such assurance that it was easy to forget he was a young teenager.” – The Cleveland Plain Dealer
