Carmina Burana

Album by Carl Orff

Carmina Burana is a scenic cantata by German composer Carl Orff, composed in 1935–36 and first performed in 1937. The work sets medieval poems in Latin and Middle High German to rhythmically driven orchestral and choral writing with chant-like melodies and percussive textures, and it marked a pivotal moment in Orff's career by establishing the declamatory, rhythm-focused approach he developed further in his stage and educational music.
First released: 1991
