The 1812 Overture was an old performance video..The rain’s to blame. Hatch shell had to be evacuated.

Just Wow...I searched For “July 3rd 2014 1812 overture” and that’s what came up. But the shell was decorated differently so you must be right.

The last time I went in 1998, it was Keith Lockhart at the podium. That was the first time they did the truncated version, leaving out the entire buildup with the Marseilles conflicting with the Russian Hymn and depicting the battlefield prior to the climactic ending. I was disappointed then, and if that was a video, it must have occurred after the 1998 performance, which in itself was disappointing, but at least it was on pitch!
