It’s a big day today as France enjoys a musical celebration. Launched in 1982 by the Minister of Culture Jack Lang, the Festival of Music takes place every 21 June, day of the summer solstice.

Yesterday the music stopped for the powerful teams captained by Messrs Angelini, Chemla, Chagas & Zimmermann, but they still have a chance to avoid the sound of the ‘Fat Lady, by emerging from Swiss B.’
