Soprano Nurdan Aydın, tenor Devrim Demirel and baritone Serhat Konukman will share the stage with ANTDOB’s soloists during the concert.
Being inspired by more than 200 manuscripts of poems and text from the 11th and 12th centuries discovered in a monastery near Munich, Carmina Burana is Orff’s most popular work.
The themes of the songs include morality, mockery, love, drinking and gaming.
