Checking in on Instagram!

All month on Instagram, you can follow Curtis as we present performances in Philadelphia and across the globe! Right now, pianist Pallavi Mahidhara (’10) is reporting from Athens, Greece, where six Curtis performers comprise the ensemble in residence at the Nights of Classical Music at the Gennadius Library. Pallavi’s solo recital kicked off the festival on Wednesday, and the whole group will present additional recitals daily through Saturday.

Meanwhile, mezzo-soprano Sophia Hunt is sharing photos and video from rehearsal for Curtis Opera Theatre’s upcoming production, Impressions of Pelléas. Sophia will sing the role of Geneviève when Pelléas opens next week in the Curtis Opera Studio (1726 Locust St.)—stay tuned for even more from Sophia as she takes you behind the scenes for a day in the life of the opera department leading up to a major performance.

Looking ahead, there is more to come, as Curtis on Tour travels to Latin America, the Curtis Symphony Orchestra takes the Verizon Hall stage for their first concert of the year, and the Curtis 20/21 Ensemble presents a dramatic theatrical concert. We’ll be bringing you live coverage on Instagram and all of our social media accounts from these events and more. Follow us @CurtisInstitute to make sure you don’t miss a post!
