Part 17-LBCAA 30 year history
President Abraham Lincoln issued the preliminary
Emancipation Proclamation on September 22, 1862. The Proclamation stipulated that
if the Southern States did not cease their rebellion by January 1, 1863, then
the Proclamation would go into effect and free all slaves
residing in territory in rebellion against the federal government.
MusicUNTOLD and KUSC Classical Radio 91.5 FM partnered to
present a chamber music concert to celebrate the 150th anniversary
of the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation on September 22, 2012 at the
AT&T Center Theater, Los Angeles. Gail Eichenthal (KUSC Radio) was program
host. The headliners were Soprano Latonia Moore
(sensational March 3, 2012 debut at the Metropolitan Opera with live radio
broadcast), Baritone Donnie Ray Albert (three Opera Grammy awards), Tenor
George Shirley (Opera Grammy and over 250 performances at Metropolitan Opera),
Nokuthula Ngwenyama (renowned violist and President of American Viola Society),
Sanford Allen (legendary violinist and first African American to become regular
member of New York Philharmonic Orchestra) in addition to other outstanding
artists.
The concert was the first music event of
LBCAA/MusicUNTOLD outside the City of Long Beach, Ca. The concert received
delayed broadccast via KUSC 91.5 FM Radio and 30 day podcast. Please see attachment for
