Within the traditional Latin text\, Geter’s Requiem weaves the words of victims of lynching and of those who dared speak out. “A Requiem memorializes a person\,” Geter has stated. “We need to memorialize these folks in some way\, to keep their names alive. And this is the way I choose to honor them.” \n \n\n \n \n History\, Influences\, & Musical Preview \n \n\n \n \n \n Richmond Symphony composer-in-residence Damien Geter began composing “An African-American Requiem” in 2016\, commissioned by Resonance Ensemble\, and premiered the work with the Oregon Symphony in 2022. As a musical response to violence against Black Americans\, Geter modeled the twenty-movement composition after Verdi’s “Requiem.” He combines traditional Latin Requiem texts with civil rights declarations\, poetry\, and Eric Garner’s last words\, “I can’t breathe.”  \nMusical moment to listen for: \nIn the movement Lacrimosa (Latin for weeping or tearful)\, Geter writes a haunting clarinet solo echoing the Star-Spangled Banner in D minor\, but something is missing. Although there are no lyrics to this solo\, the memorable melody has you following them long enough to notice that he omits the promised peak note "free" from the phrase. The silence is deafening\, as Geter's message is clear. \n"In a concert setting\, we are forced to listen to\, and take in\, not only the music\, but the message. Music can be a conduit in that way\, bridging the reluctant person’s heart to that of a broader human experience." — Damien Geter \n\n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n Foreword by Aminata R. Sei for "An African American Requiem" \n \n\n \n \n \n Damien Geter has masterfully curated this renaissance on a canvas of our consciousness and our necessary call to duty. This Requiem is as it should be-sobering and bold. A Thank You is in order\, from me and from you\, for his courage and vision\, and for the hope it instills in our community. The work is a most salient reminder of our struggle\, of where it began\, how far we have come and the promise that rests in where we are headed. \nHostility and strife prevail\, a seeming disregard for life and a conjuring of the pain of past atrocities. Devaluation of Black lives. This continued denigration of our culture\, of black men and women\, and sometimes of black children\, must stop. The communal impact of generational and systemic discrimination over time is loss of confidence and a diminished will power. That is the unfortunate truth. This requiem defies that truth. It beckons from our souls a sense of fresh optimism so listen for it between the notes. Let that resonance overcome. Damien Geter presents a powerful and eclectic arrangement that reassures us of the courage of the likes of Ida B Wells. He shines a light on the truth that is the revolution of each movement. History bears witness to Beethoven’s monumental influence on symphony; the impact of emotions on classical music\, and this Requiem illuminates the fire on that torch; it heightens all of ours. \nWhere others had stood up and spoken out\, today this composer with unmatched creative genius has made his mark by gifting the world with a remarkable musical transcription. A war song. An anthem. Through moments of deep reflection you’ll come to appreciate that this Requiem is no dirge. It is a sacred call. Every chord striking a memory of all of the souls of our dearly departed from whom life was unjustly taken. A reckoning of love and hope. This work will revolutionize our path to activism. It is pacesetting classical music. Other greats have left their mark\, and I am certain so will this maestro. \nJames Baldwin said it best\, “you write to change the world…” Damien Geter was born to write this masterpiece\, and it will change how we show up in the world. \n— Aminata R.
