Watched by more than 160,000 people in three continents, La Fura dels Baus’ Carmina Burana combines Carl Orff’s powerful music with their own world. Live music and amazing scenes on a stage featuring a cylinder 8 metres in diameter that literally encloses the musicians while the images draw a gigantic moon, melting ice, a floral ecstasy, a grape harvest, taverns, singers hanging from cranes and plunging under wine, water and fire… Welcome to Carmina Burana.
Carmina Burana is one of the most popular pieces of music of the twentieth century. Carl Orff drew his text from a thirteenth-century manuscript containing songs on earthly merrymaking, love and desire. La Fura dels Baus illustrates and illuminates the poetic strength of texts that, despite being over 800 years old, are still popular currency. The circle comes full circle to go on rolling.
