Recently added to the roster of Opus 3 Artists, the quartet comes to Curtis with an impressive list of accomplishments and experience, including top prizes at the Banff International String Quartet Competition in 2019 and a residency at the Colburn School which concludes later this year. While at Curtis the Viano String Quartet will present recitals, perform with Ensemble 20\/21 and Curtis on Tour, and participate in masterclasses with guest quartets and other visiting artists. Additional activities include the design and implementation of a unique performance project with Curtis\u2019s Community Artists Program and mentorship of Curtis students who are part of the Young Artists Initiative (those of high school age and younger). The quartet will be closely mentored by major faculty, including the Dover Quartet, Curtis\u2019s Penelope P. Watkins Ensemble in Residence and itself a graduate of the Nina von Maltzahn String Quartet Program.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe four of us are thrilled to be moving to Philadelphia,\u201d say the members of the quartet. \u201cWe look forward to immersing ourselves in Curtis\u2019s exceptional community of musicians, colleagues, and mentors. We\u2019re so grateful for the opportunity to work with the truly world class members of the faculty, including the Dover Quartet, whom we\u2019ve always looked up to.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Nina von Maltzahn String Quartet Program was established in 2013 and has graduated ensembles that are pursuing fast-rising and global careers and receiving accolades such as Grammy Award nominations, the Avery Fisher Career Grant, top prizes from the M Prize Competition and Astral Artist\u2019s National Auditions, and recognition in the New York Times, among others.
