A Look at an Iconic National Anthem Performance

So here’s a little inside information. I absolutely Stan for the CBS This Morning Show. In particular, I’m a big fan of Anthony Mason. He always seems to do really cool and interesting pieces on musicians that come off as love letters to music. You can just tell that he loves what he does. Anyway, ahead of the “Big Game” on Sunday, they put together a piece that chronicles the 1991 performance from Whitney Houston, singing the National Anthem and how it’s become the gold standard. It also goes into where Ms Houston drew inspiration for her rendition and heard from musicians that were in the orchestra performing alongside. I highly recommend giving this a look.
