Sulpice, an old sergeant, takes the child under his care, and she becomes the Daughter of the Regiment. Tony, a Swiss peasant, falls in love with her, and to be near her joins the 2ist. The young couple wish to marry, but complications arise owing to Marie’s mother, a Marchioness, claiming her and taking her away to her castle. Marie, however, cannot settle down to her new life and still longs for the old regiment. A grand marriage is arranged for her, but at the ceremony, when the marriage contract is about to be signed she bursts into the old rowdy regimental song, much to the disgust of the Marchioness, Tony, now the commanding officer of the regiment, arrives at the castle and asks the Marchioness once again for Marie’s hand. The Marchioness at last relents, and unites Marie and Tony. The opera ends with three cheers by the 2ist for the ‘‘Daughter of the Regiment" 10.28 Close of normal programme 11. 0 NEWS FROM LONDON fol- _ lowed by meditation music 41.30 CLOSE DOWN |
