Показать описание
John Paine published his sheet music for “Columbian [Columbus] March and Hymn” in 1892 through the Oliver Ditson Company of Boston, but no recording of his work is known.

LYRICS:
All hail and welcome, nations of the earth!
Columbia's greeting comes from every State
Proclaim to all mankind the world's new birth of freedom,
age on age shall consecrate.

Let war and enmity forever cease,
Let glorious art and commerce banish wrong,
The universal brotherhood of peace
Shall be Columbia's high, inspiring song.

Le Testament d'un Excentrique, by Jules Verne brought me here.

I guess this is better than nothing, but what a disappointment for beautiful music to be reduced to a synthetic ugly like this! I don't suppose there is a surviving REAL recording of this?
