Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall

Carmina Burana

The February 25, 2023 concert, Carmina Burana with the Oregon Symphony, has been canceled.

We regretfully announce that the Oregon Symphony has canceled the Saturday performance of Carmina Burana scheduled for February 25, 2023 (7:30pm) at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. The inclement weather we have been experiencing did not allow the entire ensemble to adequately prepare, and the road conditions impacted the orchestra’s ability to gather and properly rehearse. We are also concerned about patrons’ safety due to current icy road conditions. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

The concerts on Sunday February 26 at 2pm, and Monday, February 27 at 7:30pm will proceed as scheduled with a program that solely includes Carmina Burana with no intermission. We hope that you will consider exchanging into either of those two concert dates.

As a ticketholder, please choose from the following options and call the Oregon Symphony Ticket Office at 503-228-1353 or email us at orsymphony@orsymphony.org:

  • Apply the value of your ticket(s) to the performance of Carmina Burana on Sunday 2/26 at 2pm or Monday 2/27 at 7:30pm
  • Apply the value of your ticket(s) to another concert in the 2022/23 Season
  • Donate your ticket(s) and receive a tax deduction for the total ticket value.
  • Exchange your ticket(s) for an emailed gift certificate.
  • Receive a refund for the value of the ticket(s).

In order for the Oregon Symphony to expeditiously manage purchased tickets that are impacted by canceled concerts, ticketholders will have until Thursday, May 25, 2023 to act (see options listed above) on any funds associated with the concert. After May 25, 2023, if no action has been taken, these funds will automatically convert to a tax-deductible donation. A receipt for this donation is available upon request by calling 503-228-1353 or emailing orsymphony@orsymphony.org.
