They are one of the most famous and frequently performed works of classical music: Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana". The Latin title refers to a collection of songs from Benediktbeuren dating from the 11th and 12th centuries with texts written in Middle Latin, Old French and Middle High German. Orff chose 24 of these songs, their topics ranging widely from the volatility of happiness and prosperity to the fleeting nature of life, from the joy of the return of spring to the pleasures and dangers of drunkenness, gluttony, gambling, and lust.
In June 2024, at the Palau de la Música in València, the Orquesta de Valencia, one of the great Spanish symphony orchestras, together with the leading local boys' choir as well as one of Spain's oldest choirs, Orfeón Pamplonés, performed this epic work under the musical direction of Alexander Liebreich. They were joined by soloists Sara Blanch, Joaquín Asiáin, and André Baleiro.
Recorded live at the Palau de la Música, Valencia
