The Soldier’s Tale
Stravinsky's masterpiece comes alive in this Emmy-winning animated program. Adapted by illustrator R.O. Blechman in collaboration with PBS’ "Great Performances" series, this legendary fable asks, when the common man is faced with the devil's temptation, can he make a deal with the devil and win? The soldier in this tale believes so, but tragically spends his life learning otherwise.
