Wasn't Phantom's '89 ballad a jazzy rendition of the New World's second movement?

impossible. Phantom's never done anything wrong.

Dvorak was all about experimenting with new musical styles when he came to America. I think he'd be cool with it.

I completely Agree - I actually loved that show. Maybe just another attempt to flame a corps that rarely gets flamed?

I'm late to the party here, but this is as big a home run as I've ever seen on this board. Hats off, Internet Warrior.

Overdone a bit?

Does anyone feel that they completely disrespected New World Symphony with their arrangements of it?

If Dvorak were still alive I believe he would be angered by their display.

I think he'd be more ###### off by the '77 Conquistadors rendition...

I looked up the propaganda from that year and wasn't the point of the show to be exactly what you think is wrong? The point of the show, from what I could gather is "What would Dvorak write if he were in America today?" It's not like they just picked a random classical staple and then messed with it. There was a purpose to the modifications and as far as I can tell, it was done with respect to the composers style and wishes.
