Meet the Masters

Meet the Masters is a classical music television program aired in 1952 on NBC. The national broadcast premiere has yet to be confirmed, but the series is known to have debuted on then-NBC affiliate WGN Chicago on February 24, 1952 [1], so likely aired nationwide that day, too. The series, which ran throughout the spring of 1952, is considered a pioneering program for televised classical music.[2]

Known guest performers on the series include singer Marian Anderson and pianist Arthur Rubinstein.
