Given the current restrictions on gatherings due to CoVID19 concerns, the Tuesday Musical Club regretfully announces the cancellation of the remaining events on the club calendar through May 31. These programs include the April 14 TMC Choir concert, the April 28 TMC Strings concert, and the May 12 Annual Spring Luncheon, along with all other scheduled meetings during that period.

The Tuesday Musical Club was founded in 1901 by five women with the mission of studying, performing and promoting fine music to the San Antonio community. Today, it continues to flourish; its exclusively female membership includes some of San Antonio’s best musicians, teachers and classical aficionados.
Anyone interested in music as a fine art is invited to attend the club’s Artist Series; the Junior Tuesday Musical Club Competition on Saturday, February 22, 2020; and the Young Artists Competition on March 7, 2020.

Junior TMCThe Junior Tuesday Musical Club gives young people in grades 1 - 12 an appreciation of the beauty of music in a fun environment that also promotes friendships.

I grew up in San Antonio, and those years were filled with encouragement for me. Tuesday Musical Club is a focal point for dedicated musicians. When you are around others who share your interests, you become exposed to new perspectives, interpretations and technique. This experience expands your understanding and range of possibilities, and piques your curiosity. For me, TMC was a place that kept the flame of my musical interests burning, gave me the opportunity to meet other pianists, and provided me with a platform for performance. For those reasons it was an invaluable place for me growing up; I would not have pursued a career in music without it. - Daniel Anastasio, 2017 Artist Series Performer | What the Tuesday Musical Club is doing for San Antonio is extraordinary and I encourage any and all of you to support such institutions…support them boldly and aggressively. The arts are a subject that concerns all of us (because) truth, beauty and goodness are important to us. The world needs a great deal more beauty. - Paul Jacobs, Grammy Award Winner
