Carl Orff: Carmina Burana
O Fortuna
Fortune plango vulnera
Veris leta facies
Omnia sol temperat
Ecce gratum
Tanz
Floret Silva
Chramer, gip die verwe mir
Reie
Were diu werlt alle min
Estuans interius
Olim lacus colueram
Ego sum abbas
In taberna quando sumus
Amor volat undique
Dies, nox et omnia
Stetit puella
Circa mea pectora
Si puer cum puellula
Veni, veni, venias
In trutina
Tempus est iocundum
Dulcissime
Ave formosissima
O Fortuna
June 2007
“Marin Alsop is a sound judge of tempi and of when to push on near the end of a number to squeeze a bit more juice out of even the most routine material. The springtime round dances are delicately done and she lays on a sexy carpet of string sound for the opening numbers of the "Cour d'amours".”

“Marin Alsop's pacing of the opening 'O Fortuna' chorus is spot on… Diction is excellent… Tenor Tom Randle… is the pick of the soloists. Soprano Claire Rutter makes worthy contributions… Conductor Alsop is a constantly energising presence. Rough edges notwithstanding, this is a lusty and in many ways extremely appealing version of Orff's popular classic.”
