Tale of a kind act by three French student musicians. They perform in the street to make money for an old musician unable any longer to earn alms in this manner. The proceeds enable him and his consumptive daughter to return to Alsace. Lively; historically based. The musicians were Gustave Roger (the tenor); Adolph Hermann (the violinist); and Charles Gounod (the conductor). (PB)
