Classic...

I'm posting the clip below purely because a snatch of its music was used incidentally in something that someone else was watching, and I have spent the last hour working out exactly what it was and where I could get it.

It is classic, and beautiful. It is the rendition of the Overture from Verdi's "La Forza del Destino" for harmonica, created for the film "Jean de Florette", and known to me because it was used in a beer advert.

Put like that, I feel like a philistine. Ah well. Enjoy.



(If beer adverts are a bit lowbrow for you - even if they are for reassuringly expensive beers), then try here or here instead)

    Your lack of culture disappoints me. ;-)
