Backstage at Carolina Ballet’s Carmina Burana – part 1

Last weekend Carolina Ballet performed a modern take on Carmina Burana with the North Carolina Master Chorale, all 140 of them singing in the front few rows. Powerful music especially live ( Listen to it here ) and a timely version of the ballet, my favorite from Carolina Ballet so far. I find myself listening to Carmina in my studio working. Seems to help me stay focused.

This will be the first of three posts from the Carmina Burana performances.

NYE #2 – Love Language at Slims.



Its 11:40 p.m. on January 1st, 2012. “Anyone know what time it is?” Stu asked. “We need to get a countdown.” New years happened again as the Love Language rang in the new year for Raleigh a night late. Felt good though. Dancing and drinking and singing made it worth having two new years eves.

This place feels like their home field. I’ve seen the Love Language play at Slims five or six times in the last half a year. Their music can be so in-your-face its nice to have a venue that allows for them to actually do that. The post show Elton John might have been the highlight. Imagine everyone singing and swaying to Tiny Dancer during the encore break.
