 d: 2012-05-05\n\nThe Heritage Chorale's 75th Anniversary Season concludes 
 with a performance of Carl Orff's ever-popular Carmina Burana. Particularl
 y appropriate for this anniversary season of the Heritage Chorale\, Carmin
 a Burana was premiered 75 years ago (on June 8\, 1937)\, in the same year 
 that the chorus was founded.  The source of Orff's texts for Carmina Buran
 a was an impressive medieval manuscript\, a collection of over 250 poems i
 ncluding love songs\, drinking songs\, clerical jests\, and satirical mora
 l poems. Orff became acquainted with the manuscript in 1934\, and was imme
 diately seized with the desire to bring it to life through music. Orff's m
 usical setting is filled with powerful driving rhythms\, which create an a
 tmosphere of wild abandon and physical exuberance\, matching the often-rib
 ald character of the vivid and colorful medieval poetry.  The powerful and
  exciting opening chorus\, O Fortuna\, has been heard in many movie soundt
 racks and two television commercials and is familiar to many.  Conducted b
 y John Finney\, Carmina Burana will be performed in the version accompanie
 d by professional soloists\, two pianists and six percussionists\, and wil
 l also feature members of the Handel and Haydn Society Youth Chorus (Heath
 er Tryon\, conductor).\n\nStart time: 7:30 PM
