All Is Calm: the Christmas Truce of 1914 The Western Front, Christmas, 1914. Out of the violence comes a silence, then a song. A young German soldier steps into No Man’s Land singing Stille Nacht (Silent Night). Thus begins an extraordinary night of camaraderie, music and peace. Minneapolis men’s chorus Cantus and actors from Theater Latté Da bring their vocal and theatrical talents together to recall the remarkable World War I truce between Allied Forces and German soldiers in the trenches on Christmas, 1914.
