Explore the World of music with me

            

As a lifelong explorer of the world of music, my journey began at the age of 3, seated with my parents in a church, marveling at the pianist who played hymns each week. That pivotal moment ignited a lifelong passion for understanding the magic of music and its profound impact.

As I've matured, my perspective has broadened. My experiences in college, marked by additional studies in broadcast journalism and reporting for a local news station, unveiled a disheartening lack of awareness about global and community issues. This revelation made me realize the crucial role of communication in bridging gaps and fostering understanding.

In response, I've dedicated myself to a mission beyond the confines of traditional classical repertoire. I strive to use music as a unifying force that transcends boundaries, speaks to contemporary social issues, and creates a space for everyone in the world of classical music. My aspiration might seem lofty, but with every program I embrace, I aim to be a catalyst for positive social change.

Welcome to my musical journey, where every note resonates with a purpose, and every listener finds their place in this harmonious world of music.

From Castle of our Skins:

“Roots” explores the origins of inspiration, the anchors from where creativity is born. Castle of our Skins, Boston’s concert and education series dedicated to celebrating Black artistry through music, teams up with critically acclaimed pianist Kyle P. Walker to explore this concept highlighting music from the African diaspora. Color, memory, history, and culture serve as the thread that binds this program featuring a breadth of fresh voices rooted in folk, jazz, classical and contemporary.
