It's Darius Milhaud's birthday! Born on this day in 1892, Milhaud grew up in Aix-en-Provence, France. It's not too late for you to program some of his works with your ensembles! Wind Ensembles can always enjoy revisiting his Suite Française. And chamber groups will relish tackling Symphonie de chambre No. 5 "Dixtuor d'instruments à vent", Op. 75; Le bœuf sur le toit, Op. 58; or my favorite, La création du monde, Op. 81.
