O Fortuna

An ensemble of near 500 performers takes to the stage for this astounding concert celebrating the 40th anniversary of the New Jersey Youth Symphony. And what better to display their talents than Carl Orff's outstanding operatic powerhouse Carmina Burana.

One of the most vibrant, hair-raising sonic experiences in all of the classical canon, this medieval masterpiece is a guaranteed showstopper that will move Symphony audiences old and young. An adaptation of a group of 13th Century poems, none of Carmina Burana's movements are more well known than it's first. Dramatic, powerful and indulgent, it has permeated popular culture, having been featured in everything from advertisements to movies, rock music to sports games.

Don't miss your chance to support the NJYS and experience the piece with the power of some of the country's most talented young musicians and performers!
