HERRERA ZAPIEN, Tarsicio. The Powerful Carmina Burana by Carl Orff: Study and Rhythmic Spanish Translation. Nova tellus [online]. 2012, vol.30, n.1, pp.217-237. ISSN 0185-3058.
Carmina Burana, cycle of anonymous poems found in the Benediktbeuern Abbey of Bavaria, is a typical collection of cheerful songs by medieval Goliards, i.e, monks retired from benedictine abbeys. Based on this collection, the scholars J. A. Schmeller and Michel Hoffmann formed five contrasting sets of poems: the Triumph of Fortune, a Spring scene, dances in the meadow, a scene in the tavern and a conclusive court d’amour. Carl Orff composed for them a musical score that for half a century has had a huge success, both in form of ballet and of symphonic chorale. Here, all the choruses are given in rhythmical translation, so that they can be properly sung in Spanish.
