The long-awaited history of ProMusica Detroit by Alexander Suczek. You’ll laugh! You’ll cry! You’ll have to own a copy of this most entertaining and fascinating book. It reveals how in 1927 Detroit’s leading musicians and music lovers organized a local chapter of the prestigious New York based concert organization called Pro Musica and became the only one of 20 to survive the 1929 stock market crash and thrive for 80 years. What began as one musician’s desire to bring the newest artists to Detroit’s concert halls turned into a great legacy of musical artists including Bartok, Ravel, Prokofiev, Copland, Crumb and Kernis. Filled with personal anecdotes about the presenters, artists and their managers, it also offers insights into secrets of successful concert presentation. .
