Park Concerts

I'm always curious as to why every park concert great or small has to end with Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture. Wasn't our war  (it wasn't our war of 1812 wish as you might - it was the Battle of Borodino). Wasn't our continent. It has zip to do with our country and this glorious day.

Tell you what....here is the part of the 1812 Overture you'll hear for the rest of the day so you can just listen at will and then further down I put a Stars and Stripes Forever performance. As Faux Noise says, we report you decide.  Happy 4th.
