About the Work
About the Edition
Letter to Martin is a reading drawn from events in the life of Martin Luther King, and including portions from Abraham Lincoln’s farewell address to his neighbors in Springfield, and W.E.B. DuBois’ The Souls of Black Folk. I have tried through words and music to create an intimate portrait of an iconic figure.
