memory & will looks to the past and imagines the future from an Afrocentric gaze. Where the first half is concerned with the liberating power of traditional African balafon music and African-American spirituals, the second half ushers in a new, Afrofuturist aesthetic representing the imaginative sonic world of tomorrow.

Included in the Washington Post's "23 for 23: Composers and performers to watch this year" composer and marimbist Steph Davis is engaged in deep explorations of acoustic and historical resonance. A crisp, controlled performer, Davis brings bright humanity and expressive depth to contemporary pieces, and has created thoughtful, captivating arrangements of spirituals.

Violinist Randall Goosby with Project STEP violist Nathan Theodore, performing the Rondeau from Mozart's Duet No. 1 in G major for violin and viola, from our concert on February 13, 2022.        

"It was a treat to be in such intimate surroundings with the Borromeo Quartet . . Given the location within a stone’s throw of a Red Line stop, reasonably easy parking, and great acoustics, Peabody Hall and Ashmont Hill Chamber Music deserve repeat visits."
