About Ronan Tynan in Concert Saturday, March 3, 2012 7:00PM Presented by The Worcester Rotary Club
The Worcester Rotary Club celebrates its 100th anniversary with Irish tenor and international recording star Ronan Tynan.
The big Irishman has a special relationship with American audiences now. "America is powerful and intense, and it begs you to take it on," Tynan marvels. "If you do that and do it right, it will give you absolutely everything you want. The thing I love about America is that there are so many people who want you to do well. They will you to do well. They encourage you, and they rejoice in your success. That's a great virtue. I think Americans are fantastic people, amazing," he says. And while Tynan claims that America has given him so much more than he'll ever be able to give back, those who have attended his concerts, basking in the stirring beauty of his music and rolling with laughter at his self-effacing humor, may well just have to disagree.

Carmina Burana, called a "dramatic cantata," is based upon twenty-five 13th century poems that were discovered in the Benedictine monastery of Beuren, Bavaria. They are written in medieval Latin and Middle High German. One of the few choral pieces that is instantly recognizable by nearly everyone, music from Carmina Burana has appeared in countless movie and television productions over the years.
