About six miles from Maastricht, in the Netherlands, lie buried 8,301 American soldiers who died in "Operation Market Garden" in the battles to liberate Holland in the fall/winter of 1944. Every one of the men buried in the cemetery, as well as those in the Canadian and British military cemeteries, has been adopted by a Dutch family who mind the grave, decorate it, and keep alive the memory of the soldier they have adopted. It is even the custom to keep a portrait of "their" soldier in a place of honor in their home. Annually, on "Liberation Day," memorial services are held for "the men who died to liberate Holland." The day concludes with a concert. The final piece is always "Il Silenzio,” (The Silence) a memorial piece commissioned by the Dutch and first played in 1965 on the 20th anniversary of Holland's liberation. It has been the concluding piece of the memorial concert ever since. This year the soloist was a 13-year-old Dutch girl, Melissa Venema, backed by André Rieu and his orchestra (the Royal Orchestra of the Netherlands). This beautiful concert piece is based upon the original version of taps and was composed by Italian composer Nino Rossi.

What’s being off grid have to do with this video?

Questo è il Silenzio militare italiano .....solo pochi possono percepire le emozioni che dà.. ...Semper Fidelis.....

Wow... It is so hard to play notes THAT clear on a trumpet. Well played Ms. Venema!

MOST touching for those of us who served : thanks a million for the reminder. Bob

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.

It is the combat arms soldier who could relate the most. The rest of us can only enjoy!

Thank you for your service. 🇺🇲

An incredibly beautiful girl plays with the heavenly sound of a trumpet. In a few seconds I felt tears in my eyes. I have never heard anything so extraterrestrial. This performance, exactly from Melissa , I will wish to accompany me on my last journey ...

She is definitely an angel with tremendous talent. Dynamite job!!

Such intonation and phrasing. She honors all those boys , mostly poor, and girls now, sadly, who sacrifice with honor in needless war.

That is one child I would never complain about her practicing at home ,absolutely flawless performance
