Dayvin Hallmon believes that music can both create and heal communities.
This is what he hopes to do through the Black Diaspora Symphony Orchestra. And he’s searching for musicians who feel the same.
The Black Diaspora Symphony Orchestra, based in Milwaukee, is an extension of the Black String Triage Ensemble, a string orchestra of Black and Latinx musicians who play at the scene of shootings, car accidents and drug overdoses. It also plays peace-keeping concerts during riots.
