Based on real-life events during WWI along
the Western Front when soldiers from opposite
sides ventured into No-Man’s Land at Christmas
for an unofficial and unsanctioned truce.
A profound a capella chamber opera, All is Calm is a
testament to humanity and unity, with familiar holiday
and military music. This family-friendly production is
new to San Diego Opera and is a co-presentation with
Bodhi Tree Concerts and SACRA/PROFANA.
