Curtis Mourns the Loss of Orlando Cole

The Curtis Institute of Music mourns the loss of beloved emeritus faculty member Orlando Cole, who passed away at age 101. Among the students who entered the Curtis Institute of Music on the day its doors first opened in 1924, "Landy" had a profound impact on music in the twentieth century both as the cellist of the Curtis String Quartet and as a teacher at Curtis for over fifty years. His former students can be found throughout the world in major orchestras, chamber ensembles, and on the recital stage.  We will miss him deeply and extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and former students.
