“The notion behind Pro Musicis is a simple but daring one. On the one hand, the organization aims to give talented young musicians the boost they need to build major performing careers. On the other hand, Pro Musicis brings live concerts to those least likely to be exposed to classical music.” — The Boston Globe

Cello and Piano Concert in Review, November 30, 2022 | Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall
It was exciting to review cellist Alexander Hersh, winner of the 2022 Pro Musicis International Award, as Pro Musicis has such an excellent track record; having now heard this winner’s recital, I can say that this awardee is no exception. Though Mr. Hersh, as the winner of Pro Musicis, tends to get “top billing,” one would be remiss not to give equal credit in all duos to the superb collaborative pianist, Victor Asuncion. Incidentally, this concert marked the 100th Pro Musicis recital in Weill Hall, a great milestone to reach. By Rorianne Schrade for the New York Concert Review | Read the full review

Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall
“Weill Hall was the venue for yet another fine offering from Pro Musicis, featuring soprano Rachel Schutz. … Sincerity is the word that I believe best describes Ms. Schutz’s approach. … Her virtuosity was indisputable and made quite an impression on this listener … The audience rewarded Ms. Schutz with a well-deserved standing ovation. Let’s take a moment to offer kudos to the excellent pianist Timothy Long, who was an outstanding collaborator and a force in his own right.” —Jeffrey Williams for New York Concert Review

“Pro Musicis presented pianist Robert Fleitz in a highly auspicious debut at Weill Hall, continuing their established tradition of presenting outstanding musicians on prominent world stages as well as in charitable venues. … Apart from his programming gifts, Robert proved to be an excellent pianist in diverse repertoire. … He has the gift of being able to deeply internalize his music while projecting equally well his vibrant conceptions. … I would hear a Robert Fleitz concert again in a heartbeat.” —Rorianne Schrade for New York Concert Review
