The Curtis strings department integrates new students into the full musical life of the school from the moment they arrive.
Working with distinguished artist-faculty members, string players study solo repertoire and concertos, orchestral repertoire, and chamber music.
Curtis aims to educate and train musicians for 21st-century careers as performers on the highest professional level, through a unique “learn by doing” approach. Students can expect to perform often on the Student Recital Series and in other school-sponsored recitals from the beginning of their Curtis careers.
