The Juilliard School is deeply grateful for the gift from the Estate of Leo B. Ruiz, which is making this recital possible. Leo B. Ruiz was founder and executive director of Artists International Presentations, Inc., a nonprofit organization that promoted talented artists from all over the world from 1972 to 2009, including many musicians from Juilliard. Thanks to his passion for presenting young musicians to the world, and to his generous gift, Juilliard is now able to award a recital at Weill Recital Hall to one gifted young artist each year. This recital program honors the legacy of Mr. Ruiz, a generous individual who had a great impact on the careers of many performing artists.
