ARTISTS
Cellist Nicholas Canellakis has performed throughout the United States and Europe to critical acclaim. The New York Times praised his playing as “impassioned” with “the audience seduced by Mr. Canellakis’ rich, alluring tone.” A frequent guest at Bargemusic, he has performed at the festivals of Santa Fe, Ravinia, Mecklenburg, Music@Menlo, Bridgehampton, Moab, Sedona, Aspen, Music from Angel Fire, and Verbier. From 2008 to 2010, he was in residence at Carnegie Hall as a member of the Academy, in which he performed regularly at Carnegie’s Weill and Zankel halls and worked closely with New York City public schools to enhance their music education. He has been the recipient of many honors, including first prize in the Musicatri International Competition in Italy and a top prize in the Johansen International Competition in Washington DC, and was selected to be principal cellist of the New York String Orchestra. He graduated from The Curtis Institute of Music, where he studied with Orlando Cole and Peter Wiley, and holds a master’s degree from the New England Conservatory, where he worked with Paul Katz and received the Gregor Piatigorsky Award. He is currently on the faculty of the Manhattan School of Music Precollege. Mr. Canellakis has produced and directed several music videos and fictional shorts, and hosts a comedy web series called “Conversations with Nick Canellakis.” He is an Artist of the Chamber Music Society and a former member of CMS Two.
