Music Downtown is produced by Michael Dorf Presents, a boutique independent promoter and producer in New York presenting a variety of concerts at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and throughout the city.

Not only will Music Downtown increase critically needed foot traffic to the area, but it will also help to plant new seeds for Lower Manhattan's economic and cultural growth.
