Description

If there was a "most interesting man in the world" it would be Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges. He wasn't just a virtuoso violinist, composer, and conductor, he was also one of Europe's greatest fencers, and a military man who led a legion in the French Revolution.Support Classical Breakdown: https://weta.org/donatefmSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
