Music of the Americas (concert series)

The concert series is free and takes place at Americas Society’s headquarters on the upper east side of New York City at 680 Park Avenue.

The building, which has served as Americas Society’s headquarters since David Rockefeller created the organization,[4] is a New York City landmark and listed in the National Register of Historic Places, and was previously the home of Percy Rivington Pyne II before serving as the Soviet Mission to the United Nations until its current usage.

Along with the neighboring buildings of the Queen Sofía Spanish Institute and the Italian Consulate General, the house constitutes one of the few remaining unified architectural ensembles on Park Avenue.

The articles offer media from recent concerts and discuss issues and ideas brought up by the artists and music.

The Americas Society music program produces a compilation CD that showcases artists from the past season.
