Prom 17: Orff’s Carmina burana

This listing is in the past
Royal Albert HallKensington Gore, London, Greater London, SW7 2AP, United Kingdom
Dates/times in London time zone
Festival: BBC Proms

Experience the awe-inspiring power of a full orchestra with massed choir and operatic soloists. Sacred and secular collide in a Prom that unites two choral classics: Symphony of Psalms by Igor Stravinsky and Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana. The former offers music steeped in classical tradition yet interpreted with a fresh perspective, while the latter – with its famous “O Fortuna!” opening – is an extravagant musical celebration of springtime, youth, wine and sex. 

£10 to £52 (plus booking fee)
