Miliken Archive - 2003

This oral history by  Dave and Iola focuses on Dave's choral composition "The Gates of Justice", an oratorio they composed in 1968-9 on commission from the United American Hebrew Congregations.

The project also encompasses other key periods of Dave's life growing up on a ranch in rural California, his studies and lifelong relationship with Darius Milhaud, world travels as a "jazz ambassador," and experiences confronting racial segregation in the American South.
