Non devisive music thread.

Natalia's voice is heavenly.
On par with Pasty Cline imho, and her band is phenomenal.
 
About six miles from Maastricht, in the Netherlands, lie buried 8,301 American soldiers who died in "Operation Market Garden" in the battles to liberate Holland in the Fall and Winter of 1944-5. Every one of the men buried in the cemetery, as well as those in the Canadian and British military cemeteries has been adopted by a Dutch family who mind the grave, decorate, and keep alive the memory of the soldier they have adopted. It is even the custom to keep a portrait of "their" soldier in a place of honor in their home. Annually, on "Liberation Day", Memorial Services are held for "the men who died to liberate Holland." The day concludes with a concert. The final piece is always "IL Silenzio", a memorial piece commissioned by the Dutch and first played in 1965 on the 20th anniversary of Holland's liberation. It has been the concluding piece of the memorial concert ever since.

This beautiful concert piece is based upon the original version of taps and was composed by Italian composer Nino Rossi.

That was really cool. It actually reminded me of a memory I have of a trip to Holland as a kid. I will need to check with my Dad exactly what it was we went to but I remember watching paratroopers jumping from planes, a few got hung up in some trees, but I'm pretty sure it was a WW II reenactment.

As in the usual 3-girl group, there is a lead singer, a funny one, and the other one. Unless they spread the lead singer role around on different numbers, the other one is always the other one.
