Carmina
Burana
Carl Orff
Carmina Burana is one of the most popular choral works ever written, used in everything from TV adverts to horror films. This is because it’s so instantly memorable and conjures up so many strong visual images throughout its epic, sprawling, occasionally bonkers journey, from the menace of the opening to the heart stopping beauty of the soprano solo, In Trutina. BFC has a long association with the piece and recorded the version used so memorably in the Old Spice advert.
