this is a really historically educational program. The chorus who does the music for this program can only be described as "dreamy", almost surreal. Reminds one of the tornado sound/symphonic orchestrations in The Wizard of Oz 30s film. Perhaps that style of effect was a thing in the 1930s. It is beautiful and memorable. There are several episodes of That Was The Year around, it would be super if someone uploaded the rest of them that exist. The acting in it is superb, some actors voices are so good you feel as if you are transported via science fiction experiment back in time. Listen to the intro orchestra/chorus and you will see what I am talking about.
