"When I first heard Merek's music, I was taken with the sensitivity and heart of his writing . . . His music has a message, and a beauty reminiscent to that of the soul of Chopin." -- A. Williams, Alfred Charles Co., August, 1996
Music NYC has grown from a part-time enterprise to a full service organization in just over ten years. Owner Merek Royce Press, a native of Brooklyn, New York, and a composer since his concert debut in high school in 1982, began focusing on applying music and computers after graduating from college. The growth of the Internet has created many new applications for music in the new digital age.
