Academic Development and Research
In 2019 he completed his Bachelor Degree in performance, receiving a 1st class honours degree from Wolverhampton University, alongside the award for best music performance. Realising how much he enjoyed developing his performance skills, he moved to Leeds University to continue his academic skills. Steven completed his Masters degree in performance in 2021 with distinction and was presented the student award for outstanding achievement. Inspired by the researching performance elements in Leeds, Steven now continues his research to complete his PhD.
The Marimba is a relatively young instrument when comparing to instruments such as the Piano or Violin. Therefore the instruments repertoire and techniques are developing constantly, making it an incredibly exciting time to be a percussionist.
Stevens research looks at the 'Transcription and Performance of Baroque Harpsichord on Marimba' developing a transcription process, performance techniques and a new range of repertoire. His hope is to share his research and music with the world and inspire performers to develop the instrument further.
