Orchestra Iowa Masterworks VI
Carmina Burana
- Details
Carmina Burana
Amongst the most famous masterpieces for chorus and orchestra is Orff’s epic Carmina Burana. Estelí Gomez (soprano), Ben Gulley (tenor), Norman Garrett (baritone), and our own symphonic chorus join the full symphony to stage this commanding work. Paired with Barber’s Symphony No. 1, featuring cycling themes that wax and wane through darkness and light, this concert will be a riveting experience you will not soon forget!
