One of my favorite movies was the John Phillip Sousa Story when they were going to cancel his show in the south. The band came marching into town. Sousa announced the show with ever other song being Dixie. The southerns went wild.

I attended a concert at Reynolds Coliseum in Raleigh, the Boston Pops I think and there was wild applause and inducement for encores.

Fiedler played and left and came back and bowed and played and repeated the process several times.

He had Pops play Dixie. The House went wild and of course everyone stood up. Halfway through the violinist came up and took the baton. Fiedler waved and departed as the piece was finished.
