The night of August 26th to 27th will mark the annual international celebration of chiropters, with many events to inform the public on how these endangered animals are a vital link of our ecosystems, and fascinating wonders of nature. In music, bat remains famous for having inspired a hilarious operetta to Johann Strauss, mocking the decadence of the Viennese high society. This is an abridged version on an adapted French libretto by famous playwright Paul Ferrier. It is performed by the greatest French singers of the 1960s, conducted by baton superstar Franck Pourcel, who sold millions of records of light music, in one of his few forays into classical repertoire.
