Nina Simone would have never been Nina Simone if she continued as a classical musician. It was a different time and era. Today we do NOT embrace racism and through trials and tribulations she catapulted into an icon

This place is the bomb if you’re looking for musical education at the highest level. Fantastic professors and extensive facilities that are well maintained. Both the old building and Lenfest sits right in the center of the city with easy access to all amenities. Their Summerfest program is also simply incredible. A very unique environment that puts you with fellow talented musicians with just the right amount of rigor and excitement. RECOMMENDED

The students here are some of the most talented musicians in the world. The free recital series and Curtis Symphony Orchestra performances are not to be missed if you live in Philly. However, ticket services is incredibly unreliable--on several occasions they told me they had shipped tickets, but I hadn't received them. They are also very lax about communicating with their customers, so try to pick them up in person if you can.

I studied with Marianne Casiello for many years. Ten years and she was a superb teacher who was on faculty at Curtis. She had a tremendous instrument herself and she was just a tremendously good teacher. Bel Canto master. I keep up my Opera training but for years was singing both Opera, classical and popular music. I write my own music. (most styles) Virgo Rouge is my name on the net. Curtis has a great reputation because of their high standards.

There are multiple free recitals here throughout the week. I attended percussionist, Sijia Huang’s graduation recital and thoroughly enjoyed the music by her and accompanists. I plan to attend another recital during my visit to Philadelphia. I recommend attending a live performance, having dinner nearby, and taking a stroll through the park.
