About the Opera
Hemingway was a larger-than-life personality.

In his popular novel, For Whom The Bell Tolls, he projects himself in the character of Robert Jordan - an idealistic young American in 1930's fascist Spain who accepts a doomed mission to blow up a bridge.
​
Through his lyrical melody-driven music, Brian Grundstrom brings out the emotional depth of the characters and brings new insight to this Hemmingway classic. Using the full versatility of opera, Dorsen's libretto and Grundstrom's music are able to not only explore Hemmingway's themes of trust, loyalty, honor, love, betrayal, fear, pain, loss, and sacrifice but add modern insight into the toxic nature of Jordan's (Hemmingway's) masculinity as his notions of honor clash with the reality of his situation.
