Just a comment on the subject of music from this period: there used
to be (now lost) in our school music library, an LP of Sousa marches
directed by some of his family descendants. It was remarkably light
and clear, more transparently orchestrated and played than anything
we hear now. It was a revelation to me and made me appreciate the
grace of this music, as well as the effect of power we normally get
from it.
I'd love to hear that recording again, but it's been lost from here
for years.
