Oklahoma Mystery: Ship Drawn by Mysterious Magnetic Vessel
On November 14 1901 the liner Oklahoma left New York for Southampton with 643 aboard and $30 million in gold. A magnetic controlled pirate cruiser attached to the ship dragged her off course toward the Azores, causing terror and a global chase before a British cruiser and tow brought her to Payal.

The piece contrasts reactions to Beethoven and Mascagni with Japanese pieces sung by Matsunaga and others.
