  • This is a restored presentation of the centerpiece of the OWI's 1943 featurette MUSIC OF GIUSEPPE VERDI, "The Hymn of the Nations". The bulk of this version is from the 35mm LOC print. The "Internationale" footage is from 16mm. I've included the 16mm footage of the orchestra on their feet at the beginning of "The Star Spangled Banner". For some reason, this footage was replaced in two stages after the initial release. First the moment the orchestra rises was replaced by a low angle shot of Toscanini. Later the rest of the standing orchestra footage was replaced by additional low angle footage of the conductor. At some point I may transfer the print with the rising orchestra footage and insert it herein.
    The 35mm / 16mm soundtrack has been replaced by the master recording. The film shot to playback of this master for visual synchronization.
    UPDATE: I've revised my version and inserted the orchestra standing for the Star Spangled Banner. Since CZcams does not allow replacement of existing videos, I've uploaded the new version to Vimeo at vimeo.com/656321827

      Verdi arranged a selection of national anthems. The 9th, while an inspiring piece, was not a national anthem. But there was no prohibition on Beethoven during the war. In fact, the 5th symphony was a musical symbol for Victory (V) and was played wide and often.
