Description:

*Carmina Burana* is Orffs signature worka masterpiece that leaves no doubt as to its powerful impact. While the original orchestral accompaniment is, of course, breathtaking, this recordingarranged for two pianos and percussionis equally stunning. Although a recording with a similar arrangement has already been released by the BIS label, what makes this recording remarkable is that it is the version Orff himself commissioned his student, Kilmaier, to arrange. The vocal and percussion parts remain exactly as in the original. Because the orchestral parts have been streamlined, the vocal lines are brought into sharper relief, allowing you to discover the true value of this piece. Re-released at a significantly reduced price.Naxos Japan
