Description
Kevin Puts is one of America’s most exciting and important composers. His first opera, Silent Night, with a libretto by Mark Campbell, was commissioned by Minnesota Opera. It premiered in 2011 and went on to win the Pulitzer Prize. A work of profound and sweeping emotional power, it has since entered the modern operatic repertoire with remarkable speed, enjoying worldwide performances. The opera is based on Christian Carion’s screenplay for the 2005 French war film Joyeux Noël, and its fictionalised subject is the series of Christmas truces on the Western Front in 1914.
