"I think the world is going to be saved by millions of small things."
Pete Seeger presented this score of Turn! Turn! Turn! to @carnegiehall on their 100th birthday. It says "Words: Ecclesiastes, Music: Pete Seeger", but his arrangement of the lyrics is a masterpiece in itself, especially the coda: "...a time for peace, I swear it's not too late!"
