take 2: Charles Ives' Variations on America

posted at 6.00 pm under themes Culture, Videos and tags , ,

If you remember, back on July 4, I posted a video of the late Virgil Fox performing Charles Ives’ Variations on ‘America’, which you probably know as either My country, ’tis of thee or God save the Queen.  But after posting that video, I found a couple of different (better?) versions and so I feel as though I should reshare.

So, here is Tom Trenney performing on the Trinity Wall Street organ, which should be familiar to you because this is where Robert Ridgell performed quite possibly the best tribute to Michael Jackson.

Much better, I think.
