Overview
The Wilmington Symphony Orchestra brings the 2025/2026 Season to a thrilling close with Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana—a monumental work of rhythm, drama, and raw emotional power.
This unforgettable season finale features a massive musical force as the orchestra is joined by the Cape Fear Chorale, the UNCW Chorus, and a cast of soloists, all under the dynamic direction of Dr. Aaron Peisner. Together, they’ll unleash the full sonic and emotional force of Orff’s iconic score.
With its driving percussion, bold choral writing, and ecstatic energy, Carmina Burana is more than a concert—it’s an experience. A celebration of fate, fortune, love, and life’s unrelenting cycles, this performance will leave audiences breathless and inspired.
Join us as we close the season with a spectacular fusion of voices, orchestra, and the elemental power of music.
Approximate performance length: 90 minutes (including intermission)
