“This piece was written in response to his grief,” Knapp says. “He is an African-American man, and he just had to express himself.”
Cleo Parker Robinson Dance will perform newly commissioned works to “I Wish I Knew How it Would Feel to Be Free” by Nina Simone; “What’s Going On?,” by Marvin Gaye”; and “Rise Up,” by Andra Day. The Nina Simone song, Knapp says, calls for equity; Simone was an active proponent of civil rights during her lifetime. She eventually left the United States in anger at the lack of progress and settled in France.
“It is an amazing call to action and being supportive of each other,” he says. “There are some phrases in it like ‘All we need is hope, and for that we have each other.”
