Hemsing Associates

Hemsing Associates Public Relations for the Arts Publicity should never overshadow the music itself.

The classical music publicist must cope with irreversible changes: publishers and editors of traditional newspapers and print journals are scrambling to make it possible for the outlets to exist in a different configuration. To meet these new conditions Hemsing Associates has developed contacts with the burgeoning classical music and general interest online outlets, building on a strong twenty-yea

r relationship with critics nationally and internationally. Many of the world’s most distinguished journalists still write for the traditional media and have supplemented their output with sophisticated and lively blogs; Hemsing Associates continues to reach these writers. Accuracy and speed are indispensable when announcing events, but the language that can distinguish one performer (or performers) from his peer has to catch the eye of busy and overburdened journalists. Despite complaints of standardization in contemporary performance styles, Hemsing Associates believes that no two artists are the same. Each individual has spent a lifetime—through hard work, reflection, and intuition—cultivating a singular approach to the music he carries within him. We do our best to bring the “story” of these special qualities to the favorable attention of the media, being careful to focus our efforts on matters of real musical substance. For institutional accounts, we try to position client organizations in the forefront of contemporary cultural developments, making certain that all of our written and visual materials relating to a client institution reflect a high level of professionalism, worthy of the institutions we represent.

"The latest group to impress is the Beo String Quartet, which made its New York City debut Tuesday evening with a superb concert at The Morgan Library & Museum... The audience was a key measure of how good this concert was. Their attention was so drawn in that one heard that rarest of all things in a New York concert hall—silence; the silence of people listening and letting the experience sink in as the last note decayed, knowing there would be time to applaud." -- George Grella of the New York Classical Review

The early 21st century will likely go down as a golden age for string quartets. There are so many outstanding quartets that play the standard repertoire and new music brilliantly that they outstrip the descriptive vocabulary.

When Robert Schumann was born in 1810, Haydn had been dead only a year, and Beethoven would live on and compose for another 17 years. These giants were never far from the young composer’s mind, even as he revolutionized piano music in poetic cycles of short pieces such as Papillons and Carnaval.
