    Chilean musician Francisca Valenzuela took to the piano and guitar early on, developing a distinctive style. Her writing continues to flourish whether she's composing in Spanish or English. Today's Top Tune is the title track of her new album, Buen Soldado. (Although it's not available in the US yet on Amazon, it is available on iTunes at http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/buen-soldado/id456764965).
