MUSICAL STOREFRONTS
Runs through late April
Artists and programs will be announced at the storefront on the day of the performance.
This winter and spring, Kaufman Music Center brings live music back to NYC’s Upper West Side with a pop-up concert series with more than 100 performances featuring some of our city’s finest performers, including chamber musicians, soloists, Broadway stars from Hamilton, Tootsie and Company, and artists you’ll know from the Merkin Hall stage. Presented in partnership with the Alphadyne Foundation, Musical Storefronts provides work to artists severely impacted by the cancellation of live performances in a format that takes into account all necessary health and safety measures for both artists and audiences.
To limit crowd size and ensure social distancing, artists and programs will be announced at the storefront on the day of performances. We can’t reveal the UWS location, but it's not hard to find!
Special thanks to Jay Dweck, Milstein Properties, Steinway & Sons, the Lincoln Square Business Improvement District and Breads Bakery.
