Carmina Burana
A raw, nostalgic classical night.
Experience Carl Orff’s spectacular Carmina Burana: an irresistible musical blockbuster brimming with passion, humor, and the overwhelming power of a large choir and orchestra. Women go hunting for men, a roasted swan sings a sad song, the tavern keeper plays the abbot: the monks of 13th-century Benediktbeuern were collectors of juicy poems. Seven centuries later, Carl Orff selected the finest of these for his Carmina Burana: a musical blockbuster for soloists, a large choir, and an even larger orchestra. Over the top? Absolutely—and that’s precisely what makes it utterly irresistible.
