11/8/2011 Bonjour Minnesota
Tonight's program is a mix of old and new music from France and French-speaking countries. We will be playing an excerpt from the Minnesota Opera's newly-commissioned works, Silent Night. The opera is in English, French and German, the language of the soldiers. The story is true and is about the 1914 Christmas Eve truce, when soldiers of both sides laid down their weapons.
