About the artists
The New York Times described NC-based violinist Jennifer Curtis’s second solo concert in Carnegie Hall as “one of the gutsiest and most individual recital programs.” She was celebrated as “an artist of keen intelligence and taste, well worth watching out for.” Curtis is a longtime member of the International Contemporary Ensemble (ICE) and founder of the group Tres Americas Ensemble.

Lithuanian pianist Ieva Jokubaviciute’s powerfully and intricately crafted performances have earned her critical acclaim throughout North America and Europe. Her ability to communicate the essential substance of a work has led critics to describe her as “an artist of commanding technique, refined temperament and persuasive insight” (New York Times). Jokubaviciute is associate professor of the practice of piano at Duke University in Durham, NC.

Cellist Michael Nicolas enjoys a diverse career as chamber musician, soloist, recording artist, and improvisor. He is the cellist of the genre-defying string quartet Brooklyn Rider, which has drawn praise from classical, world music, and rock critics alike. As a member of the acclaimed International Contemporary Ensemble (ICE), Nicolas has worked with countless composers from around the world, premiering and recording dozens of new works.

 

The North Carolina artists in the Sights and Sounds series appear as part of a collaborative effort with the North Carolina Arts Council and 78 local arts agencies statewide. Artists are selected by Chamber Music Raleigh’s programming committee.
