About
Carmina Burana is renowned for its menacing yet thrilling opening chorus - it then continues on a journey through a wild and barbaric world of changing fortunes and fate, love and lust, death, temptation and submission.
Carl Orff found the texts in 1934 in the monastery of Benediktbeuern. They are a diverse collection of poems from the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. The poets were often wandering students or clerics identified only by pseudonyms, but they also included reasonably distinguished poets such as Hugo of Orleans.
