Carmina Burana
Canberra Festival, 1995
Set on the lawns of the national capital’s Parliament House, Carmina Burana was the centerpiece of the Canberra Festival in 1995. The event included ritual theatre, spectacular effects, and a set featuring the Wheel of Life - an 8-metre wheel driven by fireworks. Carl Orff’s fabulous music was performed by the Canberra Youth Orchestra and a 400 voice choir. NCP events have since become a regular highlight of the Canberra Festival.
