- Gramophone
Recorded live at the Barbican Centre in November 2007, Richard Hickox conducts Carl Orff’s immensely popular dramatic cantata Carmina Burana with the London Symphony Orchestra and Chorus and soloists Barry Banks, Laura Claycomb and Christopher Maltman. Hailed as one of the masterpieces of the 20th century, the music is scored for three vocal soloists, three choirs and a large orchestra featuring triple woodwinds, two pianos and no fewer than five percussionists.
