Leon Rosselson has been turning silence into song for six decades, creating a sound track for unsung heroes and unspeakable scoundrels.  The People's Music Network is celebrating Leon's lifetime of work with a live online concert featuring an international lineup of musical luminaries -- including Leon himself -- singing his songs and reflecting on how his music has made a difference in struggles for justice and peace.

The concert is totally free to the public through the YouTube livestream.  By registering, people can help support PMN’s year round work of presenting workshops, conferences, and songswaps, while also getting the Zoom link for the concert.
