An elemental celebration of earth, fire, and storm. Veljo Tormis’s Raua Needmine (Curse Upon Iron) invokes ancient Estonian incantations; Gilda Lyons’ Momotombo channels volcanic power; and Eric Whitacre’s Cloudburst unleashes a choral thunderstorm with bells, thunder sheets, and clapping rain. The program culminates in Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana, a thunderous celebration of fate, fortune, and desire, whose unforgettable O Fortuna remains one of the most exhilarating moments in music.
