 I'll listen to that at work, this evening ... I thought they meant to play it that way !  (or are there 2 recordings of 
Pasquinade?) . It's the record that caused me to look for other Gottschalk on old records (The Dying Poet and The Last Hope 
are all that come to mind, now)

.  Some of those early Sousa Victors are pretty roughly played (Louis Moreau Gottschalk's "Pasquinade" from 1901, for 
example), and may be at least partially attributable to stress and exhaustion.
