Portland composer Damien Geter premieres An African American Requiem, his musical response to violence against African Americans in the United States. The piece takes inspiration from traditional Latin requiem text, civil rights declarations, Ida B. Wells’s “Lynching is Color Line Murder” speech, and modern activism to shape a moving and thought-provoking masterwork performed by the Oregon Symphony and Resonance Ensemble.
