ORFF: Carmina Burana

Ladies and gents, grab your goblets and get ready for wine, women, and song featuring the raucous revelry of Carl Orff's Carmina Burana! Performed by the Grammy Award-winning Pacific Chorale, this isn't just a concert, it's a rambunctious romp through the most celebrated drinking establishments of the 13th century, without the hangover. You'll be whisked from the budding romance of "Springtime" to the rollicking "In the Tavern," and sway arm-in-arm through "The Court of Love," all under the watchful eye of the goddess Fortuna herself. So, channel your inner medieval minstrel, loosen your bowties and pearls, because we're turning the concert hall into the bawdiest watering hole in town.

VERDI: Messa da Requiem

This isn't your typical requiem; it's Verdi unbuttoned and unbound. With St.Clair's commentary slicing through the history and straight to the heart, expect a visceral journey through the "Dies irae," where terror and beauty collide, and the "Sanctus," a celestial burst of clarity. The "Libera me" is not just sung; it's unleashed—a raw, pleading force of nature that will seize your soul. Buckle up for an audacious concert where the sacred meets the gut-wrenching drama of the opera house. Forget what you thought you knew—this is Verdi, reinvented.
