The FSO’s 2023-24 season concludes with the powerhouse Carmina burana by Carl Orff, featuring soloists Ann Marie Atanga, soprano, John Reisen, tenor, and Johnathan Ten Brink, baritone and the Flint Symphony Chorus. Carmina burana is a cantata based on a collection of 13th century poems compiled at a Benedictine monastery. The texts cover a range of topics, like the fickleness of fortune and wealth, religious ecstasy, drunken debauchery and bawdy humor. Carmina burana performed in its entirety is a delight for audiences. It taps into themes that are at the core of being human, with haunting melodies and thrilling rhythms that leave a lasting impression.
