Upcoming Concerts

Carmina Burana

Saturday, May 30, 2026 at 4:00PM

Join the Elmhurst Choral Union & Orchestra for a thrilling performance of Carmina Burana by Carl Orff, one of the most powerful and recognizable choral works of the 20th century. Featuring the electrifying opening movement “O Fortuna,” this monumental cantata draws on a collection of medieval poems celebrating the unpredictable nature of fortune, the joys of spring, the pleasures of love, and the revelry of life.

Performed with full orchestra and a massed chorus including Spirito Singers and the Men of Spirito, this collaboration brings together dozens of singers and musicians to deliver Orff’s bold rhythms, sweeping melodies, and dramatic storytelling. The work’s vibrant energy and striking contrasts—from thunderous choral power to intimate solo moments—create an unforgettable live musical experience.
