This is the second part of George Antheil's wonderful 1925 composition "A Jazz Symphony." It was originally to be preformed at Paul Whiteman's Second Experiment in Modern Music (Rhapsody in Blue was preformed at the first) but it was not finished in time. As a result the piece was not preformed until 1927 at Antheil's Carnegie Hall concert. This number was well received by public, also by such musical men as George Gershwin and Aaron Copland. *Note* This song is in one movement, but due to Youtube time limits I had to separate it into two parts.
