By George Edward Brandon. By George Edward Brandon. Arranged by George Edward Brandon. 21st Century,Holiday. 3 pages. Blue Unity Music #839773. Published by Blue Unity Music (A0.1244850).This piece is a short and sprightly celebration of the anniversary of the date on which the last enslaved African Americans learned that the War between the States had concluded, slavery had been abolished and they had become free people. This was in Galveston, Texas on June 17, 1865. Another version of this piece, called "Juneteenth Call for GR", exists for flute and clarinet, and there is also a third but slightly different version of it for saxophone quartet. A video of the flute and harp version was recorded by Castle of Our Skin and appears on their youtube channel as the Black Composer Challenge #2.
