Composer and drummer Mark Lomax II teams up with the Alexander String Quartet for a special performance of his program “#400Forward.”

“#400Forward” is based on Lomax’s 12-album cycle “400: An Afrikan Epic,” exploring the thousands of years of the history, from pre-colonial Afrika through the Ma’afa(the 400 years between 1619 and 2019) and into Afro-futurism, expressing a vision of what Blacks in America, through healing, will become in the next 400 years.

Presented by San Francisco State’s Morrison Chamber Music Center, Department of Africana Studies, School of Music and Division of Equity and Community Inclusion.
