America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

"To Anachreon in Heaven" differs from the version we sing today because it lacks the accidentals and dotted notes. It's in quick minuet tempo -- one-and-two-and-three-and -- not the straight three-over-four we sing today.

In the AMC series "Turn", there is a wonderful scene where Abraham Woodhull is singing at a drinking party with English officers, and he breaks into this song. It sounds like something that Handel could have written after one too many pots of ale.

Here is a choral version of the complete song in its original configuration.

"To Anachreon in Heaven"

(BTW, in the video you showed me, he plays the finale of Mozart's Sonata in A Major, K. 331, too quickly. It's marked "allegretto", not "allegro vivace".

When I learned the piece, I played it as fast as he did, and my teacher said I shouldn’t do 50 mph in a 25 mph zone.
