France, Germany, Brazil, Japan, and the UK all have ministries of culture.

Medefind also gives a very effective performance as Aline. The role offers limited dramatic opportunities, but Medefind’s light yet textured soprano brings great charisma to the part, especially in the song “My Kindly Friends/Happy Young Heart.” Selowsky shines as Lady Sangazure, combining vocal agility with dramatic sensitivity.
