Soprano Shimona Rose returns to Carl Orff’s exhilarating Carmina Burana as soprano soloist, joining the Bristol Ensemble and Fitzhardinge Consort at St George’s Bristol, alongside tenor Ilja Aksionov and baritone Dan Robson.

One of the most iconic works of the 20th-century choral repertoire, Carmina Burana is a thrilling celebration of fate, fortune, love and the pleasures of life. Drawing on medieval poetry, Orff's dramatic score combines driving rhythms, powerful choral writing and soaring vocal solos, from the electrifying opening chorus O Fortuna to moments of delicate lyricism.
