Tchaikovsky at the ball game.

At the Giants game, the Stanford brass section prefaced the national anthem with the opening bars of Tchaikovsky's fourth symphomy.

Different, to say the least.

It's the one with the repeated A♭ notes.

Just the opening. Short attention span is OK

Until midnight tonight.

Unfortunately for the Giants, it's a "fate" motif. No comment on the recent record.
