Cantus, All is Calm

JCCC - Carlsen Center, 12345 College Blvd., Overland

Ages: 10-19. Time: 8pm. Cost: $20-$30.  Let peace that surpasses understanding begin as nine male voices permeate Yardley Hall with true musical stories of harmony and the season’s spirit of compassion.

Cantus captures the scene when World War I soldiers set down their arms to celebrate Christmas with the enemy in a captivating performance of All is Calm: The Christmas Truce of 1914 ... anything but a “silent night.”
