Carmina Burana

Incredible choreography, riveting costumes, strong vocals from over 80 voices and Carl Orff’s resounding classic 1937 score, come together in a Pittsburgh Premiere of Dwight Rhoden’s moving production of Carmina Burana. The ballet gathers its strength from a world-famous collection of medieval songs and poetry written by monks in a 13th century monastery. Presenting alternately humorous, tragic and tender segments, Rhoden ignites audiences and touches their souls with his exceptional lyrical, athletic, and original dance works.
