Sameer Dahar is a young, autistic man who is primarily non-verbal, but communicates by pointing to letters on a board in a process called the Rapid Prompting Method. Using this method, Sameer created beautiful poems that inspired composer Juliana Hall to create a song cycle for tenor and piano based on Sameer’s work. The texts of these songs possess mystery and deeply beautiful images, as imagined through Sameer’s experience of living with autism. Duration: 6:00
