In class this week we take swing-out to France, where we storm the Bastille with a song in our heart. That song is “Ah Ca Ira,” the anthem of the Women’s March on Versailles, a core event of the French Revolution. In this video Edith Piaf sings a very rousing version, the translation of which is much more confrontational than ours. Get into the revolutionary mood today; tomorrow we’ll sing the same song, but much sillier, and with animals.
We are revising the AllAroundThisWorld.com site — the information you’re seeking may still be here, but a lot of links are broken and details may be out of date. We are currently using a new (better!) site — ExploreEverywhere.com — to tell you all about our class offerings, our “pen pal” program and how to become one of our teachers, and will eventually be moving all the goodies from here over to there. So, GO TO THE NEW SITE!
