Carmina Burana - A Medieval Collection

A landmark collection of medieval music made available for the first time in many years.

The Carmina Burana is the most famous of all treasuries of medieval Latin and Middle High German poetry, named after the Bavarian monastery where it was compiled and preserved. It is best known today for Carl Orff's hour-long selection from its rich collection of love lyrics, student songs and religious poetry written in Latin and old German.
