As long as the investigation involving that "evidence" is still active, it can remain seized. Yes, but . . . If you were arrested for a felony, the general statute of limitations is three years. If the property is relevant to the case, you will not be getting it back if the case is still being investigated. However, if the D.A. has decided not to file any charges, then you can ask the police to release the property to you. If they won't, and they definitely will not unless they get the okay from the D.A., you can file a motion in court for an order to return property.

Was Igor Stravinsky arrested?

Kind of... In Boston, Stravinsky conducted a performance of his arrangement of the American National Anthem, which he dedicated to the American people and allowed to be used freely. Stravinsky's unconventional stylistic tendencies resulted in an arrangement which didn't sit well with the state of Massachusetts, whose government had a law against the tampering of national property. They considered the anthem national property, and his reharmonization "tampering." Essentially, he was initially arrested for desecration of a national hymn. They seized his score and took him away. Luckily, he was released after he convinced authorities of his good intentions.
