Describe the Organization's Mission:
Part 3 - Line 1
MUSIC OF REMEMBRANCE (MOR) FILLS A UNIQUE ROLE THROUGHOUT THE WORLD BY REMEMBERING THE HOLOCAUST THROUGH MUSIC. WITH CONCERT PERFORMANCES, EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, RECORDINGS, AND COMMISSIONS OF NEW WORKS BY SOME OF TODAYS LEADING COMPOSERS, MOR HONORS THOSE OF ALL BACKGROUNDS WHO FOUND THE STRENGTH TO CREATE EVEN IN THE FACE OF SUFFERING, AND THOSE WHO HAD THE COURAGE TO SPEAK OUT AGAINST CRUELTY. WE TELL STORIES THAT COMMUNICATE URGENT LESSONS FOR TODAY, AND WE LOOK BEYOND THE HOLOCAUST ITSELF TO THE EXPERIENCE OF OTHERS WHO HAVE BEEN EXCLUDED OR PERSECUTED FOR THEIR FAITH, ETHNICITY, GENDER OR SEXUALITY.
