I’m a big John Phillip Sousa fan, but Mr. Sousa never dreamed of this performance by Guy Van Dueser. I’m all for brass bands and especially tubas, but I love this one too.

Medieval, the Dark Ages, a time of plagues and starvation, and gloom. Where did we get those ideas? And what was the real truth? Here’s a little historical correction for us.

Jona Lewie— Can’t Stop the Cavalry
I’m a sucker for tuba bands. A Christmas Favorite, there are many versions, especially the Cory Band version which has no video.

(Go ahead, enlarge this one to full screen.)
And once again the scene was changed,
New earth there seemed to be.
I saw the Holy City
Beside the tideless sea.
The light of God was on its streets,
The gates were open wide,
And all who would might enter,
And no one was denied.
No need of moon or stars by night,
Or sun to shine by day;
It was the new Jerusalem
That would not pass away,
It was the new Jerusalem
That would not pass away.
I post this every year—because I like it!
