  3. Carmina Burana


130 Man on stage. The State opera of Tatarstan picks up big out for the Carmina Burana. The powerful and uplifting music of Carl Orff benefits, as it turned out in previous versions. Orff based his Carmina Burana on a motley collection of medieval poems. Dealing with booze, gambling, love and sex.

Orff wrote the piece in the first instance, for soloists, chorus, percussion and two pianos. Later, he made an edit for large Symphony Orchestra. In that version, you will get to hear the Carmina Burana. Best known is the magisterial opening movement: a hymn to Fortuna, the goddess of fate. In it, life is portrayed as a wheel of Fortune: sometimes it is, sometimes it against. The Orff music which the wheel let swing is by pop bands and DJ's excited. From time to time they get in the clinch with Orff's heirs – who watch fanatic about the legacy of their most famous family member.
The State opera of Tatarstan of the Carmina Burana makes an exciting experience. The company resides in Kazan, far beyond Moscow. Happy travels soloists, chorus and Orchestra several times a year to Netherlands for successful tours.
