RECORDING INFORMATION
Perhaps the most popular piece in the world of classical music, at least for the last 60 years: Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana. Elemental captivating rhythms, monumental blocks of choral sound and sly thematic simplicity, that’s Carmina Burana! The Shinyukai Choir sounds overwhelming together with the sharpened sound of the Berlin Philharmonic led by Seiji Ozawa. You will never have heard the opening of “O Fortuna” making more of an impact than you do now, thanks to the transfer in 24 bits-96kHz sound for Philips 50.
