And Principal Cello and composer Nancy Ives merges music, poetry, and photography to tell the story of the majestic falls of Celilo, Oregon, Although the construction of the Dalles Dam destroyed this central site of Native American life for over 15,000 years, the traditions and resilience of the community live on today.
