The Gift

I watched WETA in HD. This isn't as good quality, but still lovely and meaningful. The piano was incidental, which breaks up this week's theme, but whatever, it was The Inauguration.

John Williams' Arrangement Air and Simple Gifts

Found myself very moved by the inauguration! And thanks for the WETA link; I hadn't come across that before.

I had really been looking forward to it and was not disappointed. I was very pleased with the quartet piece being included as part of the ceremony, and I think it was a great choice of song and a graceful arrangement.

Thanks!
