Hiring Curtis Students
Curtis students may be available as featured paid performers for your programmed musical events. Unfortunately we do not book students to perform weddings, ceremonies, or other types of background events. See Instruction and Performance Resources below for recommended options.
To inquire about booking Curtis performers for concerts and recitals please send requests to matthew.barker@curtis.edu and include the following:
- event description
- date and times
- location
- specific needs
For community engagement events, such as school or church outreach, please send requests to mary.loiselle@curtis.edu.
