Brandywine Ballet

Brandywine Ballet Founded in 1979, Brandywine Ballet is Chester County's premiere non-profit ballet company. Artistic Director Donna Muzio founded the Brandywine Ballet in 1979.

Company members work alongside guest professional artists and choreographers from diverse artistic backgrounds and experiences. As a result the Brandywine Ballet has established itself as a formidable platform for dance training and performance in the Greater Philadelphia region. In recent years, the company has succeeded in expanding its repertoire, premiering exciting new works by Resident Chore

ographer Nancy Page, as well as guest choreographers Matthew Neenan (Ballet X), Ronen Koresh (Koresh Dance Company), Meredith Rainey (Carbon Dance Theatre), and Christopher Fleming (Ballet Fleming). By arrangement with The George Balanchine Trust, Brandywine Ballet has also performed several works in accordance with Balanchine Style® and Balanchine Technique® Service standards. Brandywine Ballet was recognized in Dance Magazine, a national dance publication, for the company’s thought-provoking mix of classical and contemporary ballet, and was recently selected for WHYY’s Experience “video postcard” series. Brandywine Ballet is a public not-for-profit institution operating under section 501 (c) (3) of the IRS code and is supported by admission fees, subscription sales, and contributions.

FALL REPERTOIRE // Carmina Burana

Carmina Burana, or "Song from Beuern", is the name given to a manusript of poems written by Goliards. Twenty-four of the poems were set to music of Carl Orff in 1936. Orff's composition quickly became popular and staple piece of the classical music repertoire.

Orff opens with the stunning and famous O Fortuna; its text is a medieval, resigned acceptance of the Wheel of Fortune as the determiner of one's own fate. It is followed by three sections: In Springtime - man's encounter with nature and how the seasons bring on love, In the Tavern - the rowdy atmosphere breaks out with drinking songs and hymns to debauchery, and Court of Love - describes the passions of men and women. Orff concludes Carmina Burana with O Fortuna; the wheel comes full circle - the cycle complete. All of man's petty feelings and endeavors are in the fickle hands of fate.
