Inspired by the struggles, triumphs, and humanity of his non-verbal autistic son, Justin Morell—a guitarist, composer, and music professor—interprets the recordings of his son’s spontaneous vocalizations to create a stunning array of compositions. Through his collaboration with Multiple Grammy-winning trumpeter, John Daversa, the orchestral jazz trumpet concerto All Without Words was born.
This important project sparked the partnership between Boundless Arts Foundation and the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra to host the world premiere of this live-filmed experience...
