Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: Thomas Wesley Douglas says he likes to give listeners a "musical experience they have never had before."
His look at "Carmina Burana" probably will do that.
The artistic director of the Bach Choir of Pittsburgh is taking a work written in the 1930s by German composer Carl Orff. To song versions of poems written in Latin and medieval German, he is adding African percussion and dance, and calling it "Carmina Burana Africana." It will be performed this weekend at the New Hazlett Theater, North Side.
