Vieuxtemps: Salut a l'Amérique

Originally published after Vieuxtemps' death, his Salut a l'Amérique (Greeting to America) presents another look at Vieuxtemps ongoing fascination with American patriotic songs. This short showpiece incorporates both the Star Spangled Banner and Yankee Doodle (with an extended development), with plenty of familiar melodies for the American listener.
