Good Trouble: A Juneteenth Tribute Concert
Hosted By: The Museum of Jewish Heritage-- A Living Memorial to the Holocaust
Join the Museum of Jewish Heritage and the Knickerbocker Chamber Orchestra for a special concert on Juneteenth, the holiday that commemorates the emancipation of slaves in the United States.
Presenting music that celebrates the Black experience, the featured work will be the world premiere of KCO Music Director Gary S. Fagin‘s Good Trouble, inspired by the late Congressman and civil rights icon John Lewis. The Good Trouble libretto pays tribute to Representative Lewis, and also includes texts by Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth, James Baldwin, and Barbara Jordan.
This program is made possible in part by support from the Battery Park City Authority and the Frances Goelet Charitable Lead Trusts.
