Based on a collection of medieval poems and songs, Orff's cantata was composed in the 1930s and combines huge orchestral forces, massed chorus, solo voices and striking percussion to create music of extraordinary rhythmic energy and dramatic impact.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis recording features the “Hartford Symphony Orchestra” and “Hartford Symphony Chorale” conducted by “Fritz Mahler”, presenting the complete sequence represented on this release. The famous opening and closing movement, “Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi”, frames the work with its monumental choral declaration of the fickleness of Fortune, while “Primo Vere” and “Uf Dem Anger” introduce lighter, more celebratory sections.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe central sections move between boisterous tavern songs and intimate love poetry. “In Taberna”, “Olim Lacus Colueram” and “Ego Sum Abbas” provide some of the work's most theatrical and humorous moments, while “Cour D'Amours”, “Dies, Nox Et Omnia”, “Circa Mea Pectora” and the beautiful “In Trutina” explore the more romantic side of Orff's score. “Tempus Est Iocundum” and “Blanziflor Et Helena” build towards the return of “Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi” and the work's imposing conclusion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith its unforgettable rhythms, dramatic choral writing and enormous sense of scale, “Carmina Burana” remains an essential work for listeners exploring 20th-century classical music, choral music and orchestral repertoire.
