Enjoy this brief moment of peace as we begin 2022. ❄️ Counting Trees was written, performed and produced by current Curtis viola student, Keoni Bolding. This video was Keoni’s final project in Curtis’s new Digital Engagement for Artists course launched last semester. In the class, students learn to develop and produce content to engage with others using digital media.

The school year draws to a close with one last recital of solo works by Curtis composition students. Join all five current composition students tomorrow at 12 p.m. ET for a colorful program of new music. In works inspired by poetry and the visual arts, you will hear music both beautiful and bittersweet. Some harness the power of music to tell a story without saying a word while others incorporate video elements and electronics. In anticipation of performing chamber music again, one performer even accompanies herself! @hanculbreth @nathanseanbales #composers #composition #student #musiceducation #recital #horn #curtisinstituteofmusic

Kick off your weekend on a high note and join us tomorrow (05/14) at 8 p.m. ET for the premiere of @lee.taekgi student graduation recital! Pianist Taek Gi Lee begins his recital with the serpentine Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue by J. S. Bach. The performance continues with a sonata by Domenico Scarlatti, one of 555 keyboard sonatas Scarlatti composed in the service of Barbara, Queen of Spain, followed by two evocative pieces from 20th-century France. After Sergey Prokofiev’s dissonant and emotional Piano Sonata No. 7, written during the bitterest years of the Second World War, the recital reaches a thrilling conclusion with a ferocious showstopper by Franz Liszt.
