Excerpt:
On June 7, the Shriners would make music history again at American League Park [renamed Griffith Stadium a few months later]. Nearly 6,000 shrine musicians, who had traveled to the District from across the country for this event, gathered together on the baseball field. Each musician donned his respective and unique uniform, which in juxtaposition with hundreds of "glistening horns" created a scene that The Washington Post described as having its "colorful effects a-plenty". The man chosen to lead this massive and colorful group of musicians was none other than the great John Philip Sousa, a D.C.-based Freemason and Shriner himself. … Sousa led the band in the premiere of his newest composition, "The Nobles of the Mystic Shrine", which he had composed specifically for this occasion.
