Re: [Finale] Anthems (OT)

I've played the Stravinsky banner a number of times.  I like it a lot.  
It was somewhat controversial back during WWII when he arranged it 
(1941), reportedly leading the the composer's arrest in Boston for 
tampering with public property, but it would not raise an eyebrow now. 

You can hear snippets of it here or there on the Internet.  Here is the 
first strain, repeated:

Here is the middle:

Somewhere else I found a noisy recording of the end with chorus but 
can't find it now.  If some finds it they could sew these together for a 
complete recording!

Yes, Chuck, I have played it. Shall we say it was a bit "different" and was one of his 
lesser works ;-)

	 I remember hearing that Stravinsky did an arrangement of this, and that it was roundly rejected. Anybody heard this? Just curious.
