Progress

The Three-Penny-Opera I've always loved, though I usually do not like musical theater. The music by Kurt Weill and the lyrics by Bert Brecht are so pretty straightforward and catchy. Only later I realized that the lyrics of some of the songs are much older than from the 1920s, though they  seem to perfectly reflect the time. In fact they are almost verbatim taken from François Villon and date back to the 15th century.
