                  "In 1960, Leonard Bernstein performed at the White House, and President Eisenhower said, "You know, I liked that last piece you played; it's got a theme. I like music with a theme, not all them arias and barcarolles." Now, 30 years later, Bernstein has written a piece called Arias and Barcarolles..."

                      Divertissement No. 3 for Blue Lake by Donald H. White. For Concert Band.

                      I'm bound to be wrong

                      All together now: "It's not what it says on the card"
