We never hear Charles or Walter&#8230;only the audio of the concert itself and on the bright side, we do get to see the whole &#8216;Overture Of 1812&#8217; and all the fireworks. At the very end (17:54) Collingwood talks with Cronkite again. I understand Walter was quite happy and gushing praise.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, I think this year&#8217;s concert was done last night due to the approaching Hurricane Arthur. I assume the taped show will run tonight as usual.
