Together with the Curtis Institute of Music, Bard College Berlin is pleased to host Curtis on Tour on October 1, 2024. Please register here.
The Erinys Quartet was formed by an international group of musicians in Finland. With roots in Estonia, Lithuania, Finland, Greece, and the United States, these four musicians have found common ground together in Helsinki. The acclaimed Erinys Quartet is the fellowship quartet in residence in the Nina von Maltzahn String Quartet program at Curtis. The emerging professional quartet was formed at the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki and began its highly anticipated two-year residency at Curtis in the fall of 2023.
Curtis on Tour is the Nina von Maltzahn global touring initiative of the Curtis Institute of Music. Grounded in the school’s “learn by doing” philosophy, tours feature extraordinary emerging artists alongside celebrated alumni and faculty. In addition to performances, musicians offer master classes, educational programs, and community engagement activities while on tour. Curtis on Tour also manages solo engagements for Curtis artists with professional orchestras and presenters. Since the program was established in 2008, Curtis on Tour ensembles have performed more than 375 concerts in over 100 cities in Europe, Asia, and the Americas. In Berlin, Curtis on Tour partners with Bard College Berlin to make this unique approach to learning and artistic performance accessible to the public.
