Description:

Hailed by American Record Guide as “one of the world’s great violists,” Helen Callus is sought after as a recitalist, chamber musician, and concerto soloist. She has performed with the Tokyo and Juilliard String Quartets, the BBC Concert Orchestra, and other world-class ensembles, delighting audiences in Russia, Europe, New Zealand, Australia, and Canada as well as across the United States. Professor of viola at the Bienen School and an award-winning and critically acclaimed recording artist, she has given over 100 master classes at many of the world’s leading music schools and was the first female president of the American Viola Society. Joining Callus are Avalon String Quartet violist Anthony Devroye; Bienen School faculty colleagues Taimur Sullivan, Stephen Alltop, and Andrew Raciti as well as José Ramón Méndez, the school’s new associate professor of piano; Chicago Symphony Orchestra violinist Cornelius Chiu and violist Li-Kuo Chang; Formosa String Quartet violinist Jasmine Lin; and doctoral cello student Sihao He.
