Editorial Review

Product Description
Teacher and performer Doug Goodkin presents an overview of the dynamic approach to music education known as Orff Schulwerk. In this comprehensive look at the many facets of this timeless practice, the author hopes to re-imagine its import in the lives of children, schools and culture at large in contemporary times.Carl Orff's educational ideas could not have an advocate more well equipped by fortune and disposition. Inspired initially by Avon Gillespie, who embodied playing, singing and dancing, Doug Goodkin also brings to his teaching a first-hand, intensive experience of the indigenous music and dance of many continents and peoples. -Margaret Murray ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Inspiring!
Sometimes when I'm feeling frustrated or like I've run out of steam (the middle of the school year!), I like to pick up this book to remind myself exactly what I'm doing here.This is a great book on Orff and definitely recharges my batteries a bit.

5-0 out of 5 stars great resource
I thoroughly enjoyed this book.The author is a great writer, very engaging and inspiring with alot of helpful information for anyone working with elementary children.It really encourages you to stretch beyond your comfort level and try new ideas.

I always enjoy academic writing that is able to communicate a lot of valuable imformation without being dry.This certainly fits that description.

5-0 out of 5 stars A good surprise!
At first I was disappointed because I thought I was getting a book filled with lesson ideas, but as I read I became engrossed in the author's ability to transport the reader into a different time and place.I finished the book feeling very inspired, and it has influenced my teaching in a positive way.

2-0 out of 5 stars Carmina Burana Choral Score
This is a choral score - no instrumentation or even a piano accompaniment.The score is incomplete -missing all of the solo sections, such as "In Trutina".It also lacks an English translation for the text.It is therefore not very helpful to anyone wishing to seriously study this piece of music. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
Carl Orff's 24 selections from the 200 poems of the Carmina Burana celebrate the universal range of human emotion and experience: passion, longing, exuberance, humor, rebellion, ennui, resignation. Now tender, now tragic; secular, yet reverent; the poems of the Carmina touch the chords of our purest and darkest spirituality.

An excellent resource for the student, the performer, the audience, and the general reader, this dual-language edition provides two moving translations of the original Latin, facing vocabulary, and informative essays. This text will enrich understanding and heighten appreciation of these beloved medieval poems.

Special Features

* Original Latin poems with facing vocabulary, translation, and essays
* Additional literary translation by Jeffery M. Duban
* Featuring medieval woodcuts as well as 17 original illustrations by Thom Kapheim
* Carmina Burana, with its provocative subject matter and evocative music, makes Latin a vibrant, living language!

4-0 out of 5 stars Adequate, but this subject needs a better book
Carmina Burana has become one of the favorite compositions of the 20th century, Carl Orff's setting of the profane medieval Goliard poems has been performed countless times and the opening movement is recognizable by nearly everybody.

Judith Lynn Sebesta has written a book about the text and Orff's music, while some reviewers seem to think the book is intended for adolescents, the complexities of the questions and the illustrations suggest otherwise.

The information in the book is useful.After an overview of the Goliards and the history of the text, Sebesta breaks the Latin text up into segments.Within these segments are the Latin text with definitions, a poetic English translation, and analysis of the text and Orff's setting of the music.The final section contains an alternate English translation.

There are several great things about this book.First, there's nothing else like this out there right now, so it remains a good source.Sebesta is effective at analyzing the text and areas of special interest.The illustrations are also interesting additions, and the Latin definitions can be helpful.For these reasons, this book is recommended to anyone performing CB.

This book is far from perfect.Sebesta asks direct questions of the reader about the relationship between text and music.While this engages the reader's thought, Sebesta provides few answers, making the book less of a resource.

In addition, the book seems to have a fragmented structure.One has little idea what to expect when one turns to the next page.Moreover, the musical analysis is quite lacking.

Despite its shortcomings, this seems to be the best book out there on the subject.Hopefully there will be a Cambridge Music Handbook or a similar publication regarding CB which will be of the quality which it deserves.

5-0 out of 5 stars This is a very good book.
Sebesta's Cantiones Profanae is excellent as BOTH a textbook and an analysis of this beautiful medieval poetry.Sebesta's translations make for good reading, and the original text with glossaries on the opposing page make this a textbook conducive to both learning and reading for pleasure.We used this book in my university Latin class, and it was both challenging and insightful.It gives a glimpse into medieval European life not often shown in most history classes.I heartily recommend this book.

1-0 out of 5 stars Terrible!
This is essentially a text book.

The level of writing makes it appear that this book is intended for the instruction of adolescents, and considering the rather recent date of publication they would have to be remarkablyatypically "innocent" for this day and age.The questions intended to stimulate discussion are embarrassingly simpleminded in many cases.It is difficult to imagine that this book wouldn't be laughed out of the classroom by most of today's students.

An appendix in the back of the book contain an acceptable translation of the Latin lyrics by someone other than the author.However, the body of the book contains the author's renderings of the Latin poems as well as her comments.What she has done to the poems is a travesty - even as "free" renderings they go way beyond what is acceptable in giving an unfamiliar audience an understanding of the originals.

This has almost nothing to recommend it - there are many that are better.

3-0 out of 5 stars Carmina burana --<-@
The first Carmina Burana is an excellent book. It have been written in the 1200 century. It talk about all the things that happen in the life of an human. At first, the carmina burana was a book of poems but Carl Orff (1895 - 1982)put some music to these fabulous texts. The text of Carl Orff talkabout the spring,alcoolism, gaming and love. If you read this book, be sureto listen the music created by Carl Orff. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Carmina Burana, first performed in 1937, is based on an important collection of thirteenth-century poems found in the monastery of Benediktbeuren. Carl Orff made selections from this collection and in robust and delicate musical colors painted a manifold picture of life. "Everything I have written up to now, and which you have unfortunately printed, you can shred into pulp. My collected works begin with 'Carmina Burana'." Carl Orff wrote to his publisher after the premiere. And so it was that his work caused a sensation in the whole world and continues to delight people of all cultures. The 'Carmina Burana' are written for solo singers, chorus and orchestra. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Carmina Burana Score
Prompt shipping and arrival (long before estimated arrival date!).Score in perfect condition.Excellent transaction.

5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful re-engraving
Orff's "Carmina Burana" was and is just a monumental creation, and one of the most fun works to perform.This vocal score has always been a must-have for the serious choral musician.Until now, my main complaint with the score has been that the text (hand-written, or in an italic font made to look handwritten) was quite hard to read.This new engraving has totally eliminated the problem.The spacing of the music has been improved as well.The actual music remains the same, of course, but now it's much more readable. Thanks, Schott Publishing (and Hal Leonard), for making a great score even better.(Plus, Amazon's discount off the high list price was the best I found on the web.)

4-0 out of 5 stars Great Score, Dubious Quality Binding
I like everything about this work except the quality of the binding, which is sub-par. I haven't lost any pages yet, but only because I've treated it with great care. I expect the pages to start fluttering away within ten years. At that point, I'll just pay to have it rebound with a spiral binding that will lay flat nicely on the piano. So I recommend this edition, but be aware that eventually you might need to rebind it.

5-0 out of 5 stars Exactly what I was looking for...
This musical masterpiece is so interesting, every choral member should have this version with all the vocal parts and the piano.

1-0 out of 5 stars Where's my order?
Order was placed 4 weeks ago - product never arrived. It's been 72 plus hours sinced I was informed that I'd get a total refund - I'm still waiting.I'll never order from Amazon again!
