Portrait of violist Celia Morin

Originally from Montreal, Quebec, Celia Morin recently completed an Artist Diploma in Viola Performance at McGill University under the tutelage of André Roy, where she previously earned a Bachelor of Music in Violin Performance with Jinjoo Cho. As a founding member of the Katarina String Quartet, which serves as Juilliard’s Graduate Resident Quartet, Celia is currently a Lisa Arnhold Fellow.

Displaying a natural musical intuition from an early age, Celia first showcased her talents as a soloist with the Lakeshore Chamber Orchestra and embarked on a Canadian chamber music tour at the age of 14. An avid chamber musician, she has participated in festivals such as Toronto Summer Music, Domaine Forget International Music Festival and ENCORE Summer Academy and has collaborated with renowned musicians such as Yura Lee, Andrew Wan and Josef Špaček. Celia’s studies at Juilliard are generously supported by the  Fondation Jeunesses Musicales Canada.

She plays on a beautiful modern instrument made in 2019 by David Prentice.
