The Lubbock Chorale is proudly partnering with the Lubbock Symphony Orchestra in presenting Carl Orff’s cantata, Carmina Burana. This exceptional piece of work, arranged for orchestra, chorus, and vocal soloists, was composed by the distinguished German composer, Carl Orff. Those in attendance will have the pleasure of experiencing “O Fortuna”, the most renowned movement from Carmina Burana, which serves as both the prologue and epilogue, encapsulating the merriment of the three main movements with a stern admonishment about the formidable power of fortune and fate. It presents the time-honored metaphor of the wheel of fortune that indiscriminately distributes triumph and disaster. This two-hour performance, characterized by its raw intensity and exhilarating tribute to fate and fortune, will utilize the powerful combination of operatic vocalists, chorus, and a full symphony orchestra, leaving the audience members in awe.
