SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Cello Master Class with Juliette Herlin
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Strings presents a guest artist master class with cellist Juliette Herlin (Texas Christian University School of Music). Free and open to the public.\n\nABOUT THE GUEST ARTIST\n\nCelebrated for her poetic and deeply communicative playing\, French cellist JULIETTE HERLIN has been recognized by *Strings* as a “rising star” and praised for her “impressive artistry” (*San Francisco Classical Voice*). She has performed across the U.S.\, Europe\, Asia\, and South America\, appearing in prestigious venues including Alice Tully Hall in New York\, the Kennedy Center in Washington\, D.C.\, the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées and the Musée du Louvre in Paris\, and the Zhuhai and Chongqing Grand Theaters in China.\n\nHerlin’s debut album\, *Dialogue: Debussy & Schumann*\, recorded with pianist Kevin Ahfat and released in the summer of 2025 on Orchid Classics\, reached the top of the classical charts with over 2.5 million streams. Hailed as an “impressive debut album” (*Strings*)\, it was awarded five stars from *Diapason* and featured in *The Strad* and *Gramophone* magazines.\n\n2025–26 season highlights include a performance of Paquito D’Rivera’s Cello and Clarinet Concerto\, *The Journey*\, with the composer himself\, Beethoven’s Triple Concerto with the Round Top Festival Orchestra\, conducted by Carl St. Clair\, and recitals across the U.S. Previous highlights include Herlin’s New York Concerto debut at Merkin Hall and the North American premiere of Camille Saint-Saëns’s Third Cello Sonata as part of a recital presented by the Music Academy of the West.\n\nAn avid chamber musician\, she has performed with artists such as Gérard Caussé\, Martin Chalifour\, Glenn Dicterow\, Alex Kerr\, Teng Li\, Richie Hawley\, Anthony Marwood\, Nicolas Namoradze\, Roger Tapping\, and Donald Weilerstein. Herlin is the cellist of the Aletheia Piano Trio\, alongside pianist Fei-Fei and violinist Francesca dePasquale. Formed in 2013 at the Juilliard School\, the trio made its debut at the Rose Studio and Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center in New York\, and at the Terrace Theater at the Kennedy Center in Washington\, D.C. They have since performed across the U.S.\, made their Korean debut with the Beethoven Triple Concerto alongside the Gustav Mahler Orchestra\, and toured China in 2018 and 2019\, performing in Poly Theaters throughout the country.\n\nShe has been invited to perform at prestigious series and festivals\, including the Chamber Music Society of Palm Beach\, Yellow Barn\, Shenson Chamber Music Concerts\, Shandelee Music Festival\, Sundays Live at LACMA\, Concerts in the Barn\, the Chamber Music Society of Logan\, Friends of Chamber Music Reading\, Dame Myra Hess Memorial Concerts\, the Festival International Violoncello León in Mexico\, and the Festival Jeunes Talents in France. Her performances have been broadcast on *Performance Today*\, BBC Radio 3\, CBC\, and major classical radio stations across the US and Europe. \n\nWinner of the Yamaha Music Foundation of Europe String Competition\, Juliette is also the recipient of first prizes at the International Vatelot/Rampal Music Competition and the UFAM Competition in Paris\, as well as a Beverly Hills National Auditions winner. She has been invited to be guest principal of the Dallas Chamber Symphony\, Fort Worth Symphony\, and Kaleidoscope Chamber Orchestra. Additionally\, she has performed with the Los Angeles Philharmonic\, the Paris Opera\, and the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio-France.\n\nAs a dedicated advocate for contemporary music\, Herlin has worked closely with prominent composers such as Kaija Saariaho and Jörg Widmann\, and premiered many new works. Eager to discover various repertoires and explore historically informed performance\, she has collaborated with jazz legend Wayne Shorter and bassist Esperanza Spalding\, clarinetist Paquito D’Rivera\, as well as studied baroque cello with Bruno Cocset and Phoebe Carrai.\n\nHerlin is Assistant Professor of Cello at TCU’s School of Music and the co-founder/director of the Texas Chamber Music Institute. Additionally\, she has been invited to present masterclasses at institutions such as the Manhattan School of Music\, Oberlin Conservatory\, and the San Francisco Conservatory of Music\, and in China\, Colombia\, Mexico\, and Denmark. In the summer\, she is on faculty at the Round Top Festival and the International Cello Institute.

She pursued her studies at the Juilliard School with Richard Aaron and received her Doctor of Musical Arts degree from the University of Southern California under the guidance of Ralph Kirshbaum. She plays an anonymous italian cello (c. 1830 from Perugia) and is honored to be a Bärenreiter Ambassador.\n
