Guadeloupe: Joseph Bologne Chevalier De Saint-George ( PT 2)

Culture Cult Travel Show

Part Two of Joseph Bologne Chevalier De Saint-George's story:
After a luxurious life in Versailles and galavanting around Paris as the top musician, composer and fencing master, life was about to become very different for Joseph. The French Revolution is approaching and Joseph will have to choose sides: The Bourgeois or the people.
You may have heard him being called the "Black Mozart" or seen the recent movie Chevalier, but that only covers a sliver of his real story. Today my comedian friend and musician SOURJACK will be helping me tell Joseph's real story.
