DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Planetary Music M.\nMusicians: Trevor New\, Josh Hend
 erson\, and Dorothy Chan\n\nThrough Telematic performance\, this show will
  be bringing together a number of artists to celebrate Juneteenth\, Black 
 Liberation Day. Telematic performances are shows in which performers are p
 laying live in different locations and using telecommunications to collabo
 rate. \n\nSince the beginning of the pandemic Trevor has been working with
  and performing with orchestras to create live online (telematic) performa
 nces. Using these technology and methods musicians around the United State
 s will play music to celebrate the oldest nationally celebrated commemorat
 ion of the ending of slavery in the United States. \n\nJoin us for this ve
 ry special show!\n\nSome more history:\n\nJuneteenth is the oldest nationa
 lly celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States
 .  Dating back to 1865\, it was on June 19th that the Union soldiers\, led
  by Major General Gordon Granger\, landed at Galveston\, Texas with news t
 hat the war had ended and that the enslaved were now free. Note that this 
 was two and a half years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclama
 tion.\n\n***\n\nThis Planetarymuse is presented by Groupmuse Foundation’
 s Planetary Music Movement. This bridge-building endeavor guides Groupmuse
  to overcome the historical Eurocentrism within the classical music tradit
 ion\, by celebrating historical and contemporary musical traditions of the
  planet\, particularly and imminently through the inclusion and celebratio
 n of works by artists of African descent. You can learn more [here](https:
