Flac link please. Thanks.

Hello Phideas1,

I must admit that your comments are very convincing... ;)

So far, my favourite recorded performance, despite its sound weakness, has always been the 1967 interpretation with composer's approval by the great Eugen Jochum with the sublime Gundula Janowitz released by Deutsche Grammophon...

I never heard the Michael Tilson Thomas with the Cleveland Orchestra but I usually love both conductor and ensemble...

I sincerely hope to have the same revelation you had listening this recording ! ;)

Best regards.

I'm interested. Thank you.

I would love a listen if you have time to spare a link. This is one of my most favourite operas and O Fortuna always reminds me of the scene from Excalibur, for that is where I first heard it :)

Link received at the speed of sound !!!!!!!

Many thanks for sharing with your all-time best recording of this colossal masterwork !!!

All the best.

:)

Just checked In trutina and Dulcissime; now doubt that Judith Blegen's performance is BREATHTAKING !!!

Thank you for this beautiful gift, dear Phideas1 !

This is a terrifically exciting performance of Orff's popular chestnut. Tempos are swift, from the opening "O fortuna" onward. The soloists are uniformly excellent, especially Judith Blegen, whose "In trutina" remains one of the most beautiful ever recorded. Robert Page's Cleveland Orchestra Chorus sings with musicality, enthusiasm, and superb discipline. Of the composer's Bavarian roots and earthy humor there's nary a shred. This is Orff seen through the lens of Stravinsky's Les Noces. Michael Tilson Thomas hammers home the work's repetitive rhythms with obsessive, mechanical precision, aided by playing of characteristic brilliance and transparency from the Cleveland Orchestra. The sonics, multi-miked to the hilt and originally designed to present a different placement of each individual number, may strike your ears as overly processed (big surprise)--but they actually support the interpretation. In sum--an unusual and extreme rendition, really well done.

(I want to have this man's babies ;-) )

Oups !!! Sorry, I meant NO doubt that Judith Blegen's performance is BREATHTAKING !!!
, of course...

Hi, Phideas1!!!... I'm interested!!!... Please, when you have a time, amigo!!!... :)

Link received. Many thanks.

I would love to receive the flac links, thank you!

I'm sold! Please, a link. And thank you.

I used ro play my Previn LSO LP to death when i was a kid. I haven't actually listened to the work again for many many years. So I am inintigued to have this version, especially after such praise from you. Great post, thanks for such goodies. :-)

I was just listening to Carmina Burana this morning. I'd love to check out this version!

...

Got the link! Such service! Thanks very much!

Got it thanks, and super fast! A wonderful treat.

I d love to have the link, thanks by advance, it's pretty cool :-)

I would love a link, thanks :)

Phideas1, link please?

Thanks!!!

Hi, could you please send me a link?
Thanks in advance!

thanks a lot

Thanks for the upload! Very interested!

Phideas1: Thanks � 1000000!!!

I would love to hear this version. I still remember an argument with a work colleague about its use in the movie The Omen!!!

I would love to receive the flac links, thank you!

Cowntry1821----you have made a few more posts since this morning ( or did something I am much too young to hear about) and your PM capabilities suddenly appeared. Aren't you lucky that Uncle Phideas takes the time to come back and check up on you? ;-) Enjoy the music. Go to bed.

what a MUST!! Plz send me the link and thx in advance :)

I would really like to check out this recording - an unknown to me but I know of its reputation. Thanks in advance.

Could you send me the link please? thank you.

yes please for a link - my current version is quite "tame" and would like a more robust one please :)

Link please, Thanks in advance!

I'm interested. Thanks in advance!!

yes please for a link - my current version is quite "tame" and would like a more robust one please :)

I think you will be very pleased since ROBUST is an understatement with this one. One thinks the orchestra and chorus were all on amphetamines to pull this off at the pace they delivered... but it is truly remarkable that the chorus... sometimes just part or full... not only sang with such clarity of words but at 95 MPH. Tilson Thomas gave this his own personal spin, much like Stowkowski always 'jazzed things up'.... and of course the percussion part of this orchestra took its job VERY seriously... and really went to town!

id love this lnk please. Great post

Interested, thanks in advance.

Guys... it is like this. First I don't set these arcane rules. Take it up with the Forum's Great and Powerful Oz. Second YOU HAVE NO PM CAPABILITIES UNTIL YOU HAVE MADE A NUMBER OF POSTS. What that number is... I am no longer certain. It seems you get full activation and hair on your chest (accordingly, naturally) once you passed comment a dozen times. So, quick like a bunny: Go crazy and post your opinions on music.... otherwise poor Phiddy can't help you with a link.

Wow, it seems truly amazing, please, give me a link, thank you !

Link received. Thank you very much.

I would love a link as well. I am most familiar with Jochum's Deutsche Oper Berlin recording but sometimes listen to Dorati's Royal Philharmonic performance. I can't wait to hear how this compares! Oh, may circa mea pectora play forever...

One critic said the Jochum version is "warm and fuzzy" compared to THIS. When in college I first discovered this music. I was made fun of by everyone because I kept buying albums by different orchestras. With the Tilson Thomas recording I knew I hit the mother load. ;-) I went through many recording of Ravel's music, but it remains the Jean Martinon Orchestral Cycle of his symphonic work that will always shine. His take on Bolero (so hated by some people... go figure) is unique, there is music there never heard in other recordings (and has been admired by those people who hate Bolero... go figure). Martinon could do no wrong with French music. I had discovered a special conductor. Then discovered he had died of a heart attack. A great talent.

thank you

Wonderful share thanks!

link received, thank you !

I'd love a link please. Always interested in other versions of this masterpiece

I would also like to get the link

Then I must hear this generous offering if I may. Please send me a link?

appreciate share. thank many!

May I have a link please and THANKS!!

Hello there :)

the best version? Hmm I listened up to 20 different orchestras and conductors playing it .. but this one is new for me.

may I request one link, too?

maybe its even better than my favourite (Eugen Jochums Burana with Berlins Opera Orchestera and Fischer-Dieskau + Janowitz)

Thank you in advance

What a wonderful share - thank you! I would love a link if possible please.

May I have a link too, please?

Hi. I'd love to hear if this truly is the best recording because I hold really dear my Carmina Burana CD recorded by the Atlanta Symphony conducted by Robert Shaw. I first heard the Atlanta Symphony version on the soundtrack to the movie The Doors in 1989. May I request a link please? Thanks again.

Well, you wet my appetite for yet another version of Carmina Burana...
Please send me the link & thanks in advance!

I'm very interested. Thank you! ;)

I'd love to have a FLAC link. It would be very much appreciated.

maybe its even better than my favourite (Eugen Jochums Burana with Berlins Opera Orchestera and Fischer-Dieskau + Janowitz)

Thank you in advance

Jochums has been mentioned a few times in this thread- always nice when music is discussed in this forum.

Ooooo I would love a link to this. We performed it in high school.

That was a long time ago. :-/

I'd love a link to this version, please!

I've only ever heard (or in the case with the 1989 version, saw), only the 1989 recording with Thomas Allen, Kathleen Battle, Frank Lopardo, the Shin-Yu Chorus of Japan and the Berliner Philarmoniker with Seiji Ozawa conducting and the 1975 Andre Previn recording with Thomas Allen, Sheila Armstrong, Gerald English and the London Symphony Orchestra. For me, those two recordings can't be beat, but if this recording is as great as those two, I can't wait to hear it. :D

"By the Hoary Hosts of Hoggath!! I must hear this, Phideas! Might I partake of the link, please?"

Link received, thank you very much. Now I can compare how this one sounds to my DG release.

I am very much interested! Thanks. Have a great weekend!

Hello,

I would love to receive the flac links, thank you!

Would love a link for this. Thanks in advance.

link received. thanks :)

Nice share, thanks. (Even though I already have it. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42753709/Photobucket/biggrin1.gif Gave reputation as well. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42753709/Photobucket/nod.gif )

You guys that have been downloading this Thomas-Cleveland version and the Ormandy-Philadelphia version (in another thread) really need to compare them with the Levine-Chicago recording, which is available (without having to mess with PMs) in this thread...

Thread 204130

Go ahead and get the others (Thomas-Cleveland & Ormandy-Philadelphia), of course, so you can compare them side-by-side with the Levine-Chicago and form your own conclusions.

Phideas1 says in his thread header that the Thomas-Cleveland is supposedly the best, but I don't necessarily agree. (If I did, then I would have already uploaded it instead of the Levine-Chicago, because I already have it in my collection.)

(And just for the record, please notice that I am encouraging you to get the Philadelphia and Cleveland recordings. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42753709/Photobucket/nod.gif )

Well you shit on my post that everyone has enjoyed, invaded it with another link. and seeing that YOU already have this recording I suggest everyone go to YOU for a link. All it takes is one jackass to ruin a nice thread. ANd everyone here has been so nice and so very kind. It has been a pleasure, up until now, to send the music. That is over.

I am no longer offering this. Ask Bob the knob (so appropriate) for a copy.

Well you shit on my post that everyone has enjoyed, invaded it with another link.I apologize for using our parallel posts of the same piece to attempt to generate interest in all three versions, including yours. Rest assured, I will certainly never "invade" your posts again to attempt to generate mutual interest in your post.

But if you ever have an alternative version of a recording that I have posted and would like to come into one of my threads and share a link for it, then you are more than welcome. There is no reason why classical music fans shouldn't have as many alternative interpretive viewpoints available as possible. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42753709/Photobucket/nod.gif
and seeing that YOU already have this recording I suggest everyone go to YOU for a link.Gladly. I'm uploading it right now and will have the link/info posted shortly. One of us has to act like an adult, after all.
All it takes is one jackass to ruin a nice thread.You beat me to the punch.
ANd everyone here has been so nice and so very kind.As I was also attempting to be.
It has been a pleasure, up until now, to send the music. That is over. I am no longer offering this.How very mature, you'll just pick up all your toys and go home, huh?
Ask Bob the knob (so appropriate) for a copy.They won't have to ask. I'll have it available for an open download very shortly.

See ya.

(And by the way, if you decide to make your copy available again, please let me know, and I will immediately take down my link. You posted the Thomas-Cleveland recording first, and I respect that, even though you might not believe that, based on your above post.)

Should I add a third Carmina Burana? The one I think is the Absolute Best? In remastered form? :D

It would be the DG recording with Eugen Jochum conducting, you know, the only one that was authorized by Orff himself ;)

Should I add a third Carmina Burana?Not that it's a big deal, but it would actually be a fourth. The Ormandy-Philadelphia is also available in another thread.
The one I think is the Absolute Best? In remastered form? :D

It would be the DG recording with Eugen Jochum conducting, you know, the only one that was authorized by Orff himself ;)I have actually never heard that one. I would be very interested in hearing it. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42753709/Photobucket/thumb.gif (Seriously, I'm not kidding.)

Thanks a lot for this terrific performance!

Oh... no!!!... I couldn't downloaded yet!!!... :(
Please!!!... :(

Big fan of Carmina Burana, I love the Zubin Metha rendition and I'd appreciate a link for this one too please. I recommand the Rite of Spring by Tilson Thomas though.
