There's going to be a quiz after the song. You have to know what was going on between the Swedes, the Austrians, and the Russians. Then you have to expand on how it affected the revolutions of 1848.
A couple of years ago in Vienna at Rathausplatz, the city hall park, where they city has outdoor concerts and other performances, I saw the Eric Clapton concert from Albert Hall on the massive screen about 4 stories tall. The sound on speaker towers that were also several stories tall was excellent.
I have no idea how many people were there but Clapton was fabulous and the concert rocked the night. Beer flowed. Americans, Canadians, Brits, Scots, Australians, Irish could not sit or stand still while Clapton played. The Austrians sat attentive and seemed to enjoy the concert but they barely feckin moved. Not a head nod, not a foot tap. I guess it's not in their culture.
