Stanford Band Hearts Rose Bowl Row Over Anthem Version
Stanford clashed with the Tournament of Roses Committee over its lighter version of The Star Spangled Banner played at the Rose Bowl. The 140 member band, directed by Dr. Arthur P. Barnes, performed a dramatic rendition that differed from the traditional version, drawing objections though the regular version was used for the national anthem. The event followed a day of varied opinions on national anthems at sports events and a celebratory post game concert by Stanford’s band. Ohio State executed the traditional anthem, while Stanford’s performance drew praise from fans for its finale reach and film TV exposure.
