Affiliate Artists was a U.S. nonprofit performing arts organization active from 1965 to 1990s and headquartered in New York City.〔Holland, Bernard, ("Music: Young Musicians Sell Their Wares Door to Door" ), ''New York Times'', August 20, 1989〕 Instead of conventional competition prizes, Affiliate Artists offered the performing artists that were chosen through its auditions and competitions residencies and performances that placed them in communities for more than single appearances. Of particular note were the Affiliate Artists Xerox Pianist Program,〔Cruice, Valerie, ("Pianist Takes the Classics on the Road" ), ''New York Times'', March 10, 1991〕 Texaco Affiliate Artist program, and Exxon-Arts Endowment Conductors Program.〔Kimmelman, Michael, ("Vanishing Species: Where Have All the Great American Conductors Gone?" ), ''Chicago Tribune'', September 8, 1985〕 In each cycle of auditions, winners were not ranked. In 1989, The ''New York Times'' wrote: "If the winners of last February's Xerox Pianists competition had received an Olympic medal for their efforts, it would have been an alloy - gold, silver, bronze, etc., all mixed together. Affiliate Artists, the program's parent organization, is interested in providing opportunities rather than rankings. More than 200 pianists applied, 23 semifinalists were chosen and the five winners taken from them. Contestants played recitals and concertos (with the Rochester Philharmonic). In addition to performing, the contestants had to talk to their four judges."
