San Antonio Tuesday Musical Club
Tuesday Musical Club continues its 120 year tradition of bringing the enjoyment of quality music to its members, friends, the community’s youth and the public through performance and education.
The pandemic changed how and when we presented programs and competitions, but our passion is undeterred!
The Artist Series—one of the oldest musical series sponsored by women in the United States—will resume this fall! The Series will celebrate its 98th season with four world-class artists: cellist Jonah Kim; Mezzo Soprano Raehann Bryce-Davis; pianist Gabriela Martinez and organist Damin Spritzer.

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
