Carmina Burana
Kamea Dance Company
Choreography: Tamir Ginz
Music: Carl Orff’s "Carmina Burana"
Inspired by the legendary music by Carl Orff, Tamir Ginz created his contemporary choreography as a ritual of senses, love and erotica. The dance although abstract, interprets the songs in a modern way. The dancers celebrate youth, desire, and the beauty of physical movement in a vibrant and wild masquerade.
This was a commissioned premiere from Kamea's artistic director Tamir Ginz for "KYPRIA 2007" festival in Cyprus. Ginz's "Carmina Burana" became an international success and was performed all over the globe by Kamea's dancers ever since...
Due to international demand, in 2024 Ginz revisited the choreography, to create a new adventure, an updated extravaganza.
The performance is accompanied by recorded music performed by the London Symphony Orchestra and Chorus (2002) conducted by Richard Hickox

The show is discounted for subscribers, but subscription tickets cannot be used. - Reviews:"Throughout the performance, the choreography succeeds in matching the musical imagery – Ginz adopts a literal approach, where every movement carries meaning. This choreography not only aligns with the music but brings it to life through motion – Ginz is bold in his use of various means, each movement contributing to a rich tapestry of expression that conveys emotion and musical imagery...the choreographer meticulously dissects rituals of courtship, flirtation, and marital games. Ultimately, all this culminates in an extravagant, wild fantasy – a hymn to the drunken freedom from propriety, a catharsis of both spiritual and physical love." (CULBYT By Lina Goncharskaya)
