2024 Fall Concert: Carmina Burana
Join us for an extraordinary evening of music as the Palo Alto High School Choirs collaborate with Schola Cantorum, under the direction of Dr. Buddy James, to perform Carl Orff’s iconic Carmina Burana. Few compositions have captured the world’s imagination like Carmina Burana, particularly its powerful opening movement, “O Fortuna,” which has become a staple in commercials, movies, and social media. Its ubiquity rivals even Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy” in its ability to stir and evoke emotions of awe.
This unique performance will feature an ensemble of 160 singers, accompanied by two pianos and percussion ensemble. Don’t miss this remarkable event on October 27th at 4 PM, at the Palo Alto High School Performing Arts Center. Tickets are sure to sell out quickly—secure yours today!
We believe in gathering the Palo Alto High School Community and its friends in the performance of great choral and vocal music. We believe that our ensembles should achieve the advanced standards of music education set by the PAUSD and the State of California. But above all, we believe that in the pursuit of great music, young people will develop lasting relationships, enduring memories, and profound appreciation for art.
The Friends of the Palo Alto High School Choir is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that has been supporting Paly’s outstanding choral program for more than 40 years. The FOPC provides funding for tours, scholarships, attire, music purchase, accompaniment and music resources that are essential to Paly’s high quality music program. Please consider making a donation.

Congratulations to the first Tenor Bass ensemble class at Paly. For years, we have sought to encourage tenor and bass singing through lunchtime clubs. But now we can focus on the art of low voice instruction in class and through curriculum.
