Carmina Burana & Bach

Immerse yourself in the raw, visceral power of the human voice. The opening evocative work for solo voices contrasts the intricate weavings of Bach’s masterful blending of complexity and beauty. The GRAMMY® Award-winning Pacific Chorale takes centerstage for Carmina Burana, the most frequently performed choral work of the 21st century. This popular work (celebrating “Springtime,” “In the Tavern,” and “The Court of Love”) has been featured regularly in pop culture: from video games and reality television to flash mobs and Disney!

The program opens with Pacific Chorale singing Morten Lauridsen's exquisite choral work, O Magnum Mysterium.

With Image Magnification (IMAG) on the big screen for a closer look at the guest artists, conductor and orchestra musicians!
