Orff's masterpiece "Carmina Burana" features some of the greatest baritones of the 20th century.
A magnificent chorus and outstanding soloists. Fischer-Dieskau's intelligent and powerful voice, in particular, imbues the work with dignity and tension. A truly outstanding performance, brimming with vitality and a festive sound.
