Our Founder
Judi Neu began working in the arts in 1976 and served for seven years as the President of the Board of Directors for the New School of Music, a community music school in Cambridge, MA. She started Music Management Inc. out of her home in 1981, when she discovered that there was a need in the event industry for a knowledgeable liaison between musicians and clients. Her first major client was the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. For forty years, Judi supported Boston’s music community, providing work for hundreds of professional musicians and building a reputation among event industry professionals as a creative, experienced and trustworthy resource for entertainment. The company continues to model Judi’s original mission to provide quality performances with exceptional, and very personalized service.
