"For many years, I've been seeking out forgotten music by Black composers. I’ve been listening for the voices that tell a different story about American music than the one we think we know. A better story. A story of migration and metamorphosis, trial and triumph, courage and creativity — a story about where we’ve been and where we’re going. It’s a long story, and it’s a story that’s still being written.

Now it’s time for me to share my discoveries.

I think this music will speak to you in a beautiful and familiar language that evokes our memories of lineage and legacy, of the journeys we’ve made, and most of all, our awareness of the places where we come together." (Lara Downes)
