At the beginning of the 1930s, Orff produced a number of arrangements of early music. His researches in this area led to the creation of Carmina Burana. The texts come from a collection of earthy lyrics, discovered in a Bavarian monastery and dating from the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. It contains some 200 drinking songs and love lyrics. Orff saw in it the ideal vehicle to express basic human emotions.</p>
<p>This work is enormous in both force and sound creating an experience that is nothing short of spectacular.

Carmina Burana - Carl Orff

We celebrate the joy and renewal of spring with an uplifting performance of Handel’s most beloved oratorio. A cherished tradition in many countries, Messiah tells the story of Christ’s birth, passion, resurrection, and resurrection through sublime choruses, stirring arias, and majestic orchestration.  From the exhilarating “Hallelujah” chorus to the tender beauty of “He shall feed his flock,” Handel’s music conveys the profound spirituality and universal themes of hope and redemption.
