Those 150 youngsters singing their hearts out are marvelous. One can understand every word. Instrumentalists are exacting as well. Such precision. That's why the trains run on time!
magnificent interpretation, the instrumentation that on the edge of an almost absolute simplicity, the coral gives a warmth to the mediaveles poems ....
I have another recording like this on cd and I really enjoy this kind of minimalist instrumentation over the more common orchestral arrangement. It gives the work a more somber (if not haunting) feeling.
A choir in a neighbouring town sometimes does these kinds of arrangements and often asks my drums teacher to provide the percussion parts. Recently they did Carmina Burana in almost (if not exactly) this arrangement. Two Pianos, the choir, solo singers and a five-person percussion section. The best one yet was Jenkins' the Armed Man tho. They really outdid themselves on that one I also now know: Reportedly, the cymbals at 24:57 are one of the hardest sections
Wow ! There is no words to describe how amazing is the performance of this 150 youngsters singing with their hearts, ..and the orchestra ..simply wonderful !
Der Chor ist sehr sehr gut und vor allem sehr präzise für so viele Leute. Wundervoll und es klingt nie angestrengt. Es gibt auch keinen Überhang von der Klangmasse her der männlichen Stimmen wie sonst üblich wenn die Frauen kaum in der Überzahl sind. In der Tat eher umgekehrt aber das schreib ich mal der Tontechnik zu...klingt halt ziemlich gut bei den Chor unisoni aber ein bisschen zu wenig Männer sobald sie allein sind.
Carmine Burana è sempre magica in qualsiasi versione, non riesci a smettere di ascoltarla!!! Peccato che i solisti si sentano poco (praticamente niente). (non sono microfonati)
