Hollywood Bowl (Hollywood, CA)
Though Carmina Burana has been sampled in songs by Michael Jackson, Ozzy Osborne and Busta Rhymes, and mixed into movies like The Matrix, Natural Born Killers and Shrek, chances are you have heard only the very beginning and very end of this 24-movement masterpiece. In between are whole oceans of sound that break over the audience with awesome drama and terrific power. A cantata for chorus and orchestra that defines “masterwork,” Carmina Burana sings of lust, flirtation, passion and the unwavering power of destiny. Relax under the stars at the Hollywood Bowl when the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s Gustavo Dudamel conducts Orff’s cantata for his very first time. Whitacre’s Her Sacred Spirit Soars and Equus start the program.
