Within a year of attending Curtis he was featured in an all-Strauss concert with the Curtis Symphony Orchestra led by Yannick Nézet Séguin. Meet Jackson and his classmates tonight in On Stage at Curtis, the show that takes you behind the scenes of one of the most prestigious music schools in the country, Philadelphia’s curtisinstitute.
