Come and Sing Carmina Burana by Carl Orff with Portsmouth Choral Union
Saturday 27 January 2024
Conductor: David Gostick Accompanist: Ian Richardson
You may have heard it countless times before, but O Fortuna from Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana, composed in 1935, might be the most frequently played choral work of the last hundred years.
So, if you haven’t had the opportunity to sing this masterpiece – then now is your chance!
Carmina Burana is dramatic and provocative. It is divided into three sections called Springtime, In the Tavern and The Court Of Love and contains songs of drinking, nature and lust!
Did you know music from Carmina Burana has been used for an Old Spice Advert, in the film Excalibur (1981) and by Carlton Draught Beer!
