Virginia\u003c\/em\u003e , commissioned by Virginia Opera and The Richmond Symphony, tells the harrowing story of Richard and Mildred Loving, an interracial couple who married in 1958. Although they wed in Washington, D.C., their marriage was considered illegal in their home state of Virginia at the time. Their case ultimately reached the U.S. Supreme Court in 1967, which ruled that laws banning interracial marriage were unconstitutional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Suite from \u003cem\u003eLoving v. Virginia\u003c\/em\u003e preserves the opera's central musical themes and dramatic arc. These include the home theme; the music of the law—encompassing the Supreme Court (m. 22), the Sheriff\/Judge (m. 194), and the monotonous \"law chorus\" (m. 201); as well as the love theme (m. 93) and the dream theme (m. 488). To me, the longing for home lies at the heart of the story. The suite opens with the home theme and follows many winding paths and challenges until Richard and Mildred finally return home in the end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrchestral instrumentation:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.2.3.2\/4.3.3.1\/timp.3 perc\/strings\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Just a Theory Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45176702500943,"sku":"JAT-113-036-FS","price":120.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/1ce649cf42b96504f7732a317353adfd.webp?v=1778193939","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/es\/products\/geter-suite-from-loving-v-virginia-just-theory","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
