IMI has its roots in St. Louis since 1994, with a programming mission always rooted in promoting cultural diversity. The IMI Chamber Music Concert Series integrates new and unfamiliar musical works into the existing performance repertoire and partners with a growing community of artists and educators from around the globe. Our St. Louis based IMI Chamber Players has a mixed instrumentation for regular features on our St. Louis concert series and in performances across the U.S. and internationally. Concerts feature top-notch musicians known for their passion for chamber music by lesser-known composers, particularly those of African descent and other racial minorities. As Gary Scott of St. Louis Magazine remarked, “IMI is a new series of concerts, which works to build bridges of true understanding and cooperation between cultures…” Online at www.imusici.org.
