3. Experience Edward Clug’s powerful reinterpretation of Carmina Burana

Experience a powerful reinterpretation of Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana in a modern ballet, performed by Maribor Ballet of Slovene National Theatre. Visionary choreographer Edward Clug brings this iconic masterpiece to life with stunning contemporary movement, creating an unforgettable experience at Dubai Opera. Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana is a 20th-century musical masterpiece that delves into timeless themes of hope, love, and destiny, inspired by medieval verse. Its opening movement, O Fortuna, remains one of the most recognisable and evocative pieces of classical music, casting a dramatic spotlight on humanity’s uncertain fate.

Edward Clug’s fresh reinterpretation breathes new life into this work, exploring its dual themes of torment and renewal. His choreography highlights the resilience of the human spirit, weaving together reflections on legacy, connection, and the enduring nature of the human experience.
