About Joseph Horowitz
Joseph Horowitz (born 1948 in New York City) is an American cultural historian whose eleven books mainly deal with the institutional history of classical music in the United States. As a producer of concerts, he has played a pioneering role in promoting thematic programming and new concert formats.
