It is based twenty-four of the poems found in the medieval collection. Its full Latin title translates to “Songs of Beuern: Secular songs for singers and choruses to be sung together with instruments and magic images.” The best-known movement, O Fortuna, opens and closes this scenic cantata. Featuring University Singers and the Oratorio Society performing in “The Pit” at the Memorial Gym.
