KMC's Musical Storefronts Returns to Lincoln Square

Last winter, Kaufman Music Center brought live music back to NYC with a free, pop-up concert series that delighted 31,000 audience members and provided work to more than 200 artists when theaters were dark and cultural institutions still shuttered. Beginning on Thursday, February 3, the popular Musical Storefronts series returns with a brand-new season of surprise performances ranging from classical, jazz and the Great American Songbook to R&B, Gospel and groundbreaking new music by artists dynamically bridging genres and cultures. The 2022 performers include soloists, duos, string quartets, chamber ensembles, Broadway stars, vocal ensembles and more. Click here to read about Musical Storefronts.

Concerts take place in a storefront transformed into a performance venue on the northeast corner of Broadway and West 62nd Street, and are amplified by a sound system to passersby on the street. Performances will take place several days a week at 11:00am, 12:00pm, and 1:00pm, and at 4:00pm, 5:00pm, and 6:00pm. Artists and programs will be announced on a rolling basis on Kaufman Music Center's website and social media channels. Leadership support for the series is provided by Con Edison as part of the company’s Arts Al Fresco Series, the Howard Gilman Foundation and Ether Advisory Partners, with space generously provided by Milstein Properties.
