6/1/20 The Dream Unfinished & Lincoln Center honor #EssentialWorkers of Color


 

Will you Stay On It?

Learn more about our mission at The Dream Unfinished.

Presented by Lincoln Center, The Dream Unfinished will premiere a video performance of Stay On It by Julius Eastman (1940-1990), a composer whose music explored his identities as a gay man and as a Black-American. Stay On It is dedicated to blue-collar essential workers such as grocery employees, public transit operators, custodians, and other professions overwhelmingly occupied by people of color. This is the first classical music tribute to essential workers of color in the United States.


Join us for the premiere on 6/1/20
