A little soldier meets the devil and trades his violin against Satan's promise of good fortune. The devil changes his mask all the time: butterfly collector, radio announcer, photographer, masseur in a sauna. The little soldier on leave… Stravinsky's music sets the pace, with a judicious mixture of jazz, church music, tango, waltz and ragtime.
