NEK filmmaker Jay Craven contributed a column this week on Independence Day music and its history, coinciding with the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The piece notes that the Vermont Symphony Orchestra performed a holiday program at the Alexander Twilight Theater on July 2, opening with Francis Scott Key's "Star-Spangled Banner," written during the War of 1812 after the Battle of Baltimore.
