When There Is Peace: An Armistice Oratorio

By Zachary Wadsworth, Assistant Professor of Music. Available on iTunes. Told in the words of Great War-era poets and the found writings of infantrymen in the trenches, When There Is Peace draws the listener in to experience the journey from war through that tenuous moment when word of the Armistice first broke, and finally to the delirious ecstasy when the guns fell silent, and hope bloomed again.
