Peer into the soul of the soldier. Composer David T. Little, described by the New York Times as showing “real imagination,” brings this riveting and exceptional multimedia event to the Schimmel stage. Soldier Songs combines elements of theatre, opera, rock-infused-concert music, and animation. This unique opera explores the perceptions versus the realities of the Soldier, the exploration of loss and exploitation of innocence, and the difficulty of expressing the truth of war. A rare and personal experience.
