In keeping with its mission "to educate and train exceptionally gifted young musicians for careers as performing artists on the highest professional level," The Curtis Institute of Music provides its students with numerous opportunities to perform: as members of the Curtis Symphony Orchestra and the Curtis Opera Theatre; on its Student Recital Series; and with distinguished faculty and alumni in Curtis On Tour ensembles. In addition, celebrated graduates return each year to perform on the Alumni Recital Series, a program of benefit concerts that support current students.
