Event Details


Curtis on Tour comes to venues in Kempten, Germany (September 23); Teulada, Spain (September 25); and Berlin (September 29).

Renowned violinist Elissa Lee Koljonen and pianist Mikael Eliasen tour Europe with recent alumnus, Dennis Chmelensky and current student, Chase Park. The unique program brings together voice, strings, and piano, and features music by Curtis alumnus Ned Rorem. Having performed Aftermath numerous times, Eliasen selected the poignant work as the centerpiece of the program. Rorem composed Aftermath, from his point of view as a pacifist, in response to the terrorist attack on the United States on September 11, 2001.
