Andrew Megill, A. J. Keller, and Robert Taylor, conductors
Combined Bienen School choirs and the Symphonic Wind Ensemble join forces for a unique collaboration exploring music of awe, reverence, and fate. The program opens with Randall Thompson’s stirring The Last Words of David and Anton Bruckner’s monumental Mass No. 2 in E Minor. Brahms’s noble Begräbnisgesang (Burial Song) offers a moment of reflective solemnity, setting the stage for the raw energy of Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana in its thrilling arrangement for chorus and wind ensemble. This unforgettable night showcases the full expressive spectrum of voices and winds from the sacred to the elemental.
