| | Carl Orff - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Orff's last work, De Temporum Fine Comoedia ("A Play of the End of Time"), had its premiere at the Salzburg music festival on August 20, 1973, performed by Herbert von Karajan and the Cologne Radio Symphony Orchestra and Chorus. | | | Carmina Burana was in fact so popular that Orff received a commission in Vienna to compose music for Midsummer Night's Dream, which was supposed to replace the banned music by Mendelssohn. | | | About his Antigone (1949), Orff said specifically that it was not an opera, rather a Vertonung, a "musical setting" of the ancient tragedy. |

| | American Orff-Schulwerk Association |
| | As musical director, Orff was responsible for the musical training of the students. | | | At the core of Carl Orff's work is a kind of musical expression that is able to speak to children without the loss of musical integrity. | | | Born out of improvisation, the fluid medium of elemental music does not adapt well to the static medium of print. |

| | Carl Orff's Philosophies |
| | Orff believed that music, movement, and speech are not separate entities in and of themselves, but that they form a unity that he called elemental music. | | | Orff's approach to Music Education notes that speech, chant, and song are all points along the same line. | | | Orff's thought was that a transition from speech to rhythmic activities and then to song was the most natural for a child. |

| | Welcome to Carl Orff: Biopgraphy |
| | Orff, the musician and dramatist, was enthralled by the linguistic power of Friedrich Hölderlin's German transliteration of Sophocles's tragedy. | | | He used the Brothers Grimm fairytale Der Mond (The Moon) as the basis for his Kleines Welttheater (Little World Theater). | | | He wrote new arrangements of Monteverdi's L'Orfeo, Lamento d'Arianna and Ballo delle Ingrate and also wrote songs for voice and piano. |

| | Rhythm ad percussion are highlighted as Orff honors music's origin not only in song but also in dance, another symbol of ecstasy. | | | Critic Christopher Palmer notes that the appeal of Orff's music lies in the way it uncovers and reasserts something of music's "reason," its primordial and instinctual qualities. | | | It contains Latin plays on Biblical themes, pastoral and religious poems, recruiting songs for the Crusades, satires, and a large group of lively, sometimes licentious, love songs and drinking sngs. |

| | :: INKPOT#69 CLASSICAL MUSIC REVIEWS: ORFF Carmina Burana - An Inktroduction |
| | The text of these 25 songs are drawn from a manuscript collection containing 200 Medieval poems and songs dating from between 1220 and 1250 in the ancient Styria or South Tyrol. | | | Though it is often presented unstaged in the concert hall (rather like an oratorio), the work was originally intended to be semi-theatrical, complete with dance sequences: hence Orff's instruction of "Magic Tableux". | | | The famous opening chorus - 'O Fortuna' - is surely one the most dramatic and powerful passages of music ever written. |

| | The selection of love songs, feasting and drinking songs, which Carl Orff excerpted from the manuscript and scored for scenes in a cantata, would become the most successful work in contemporary music-theatre. | | | The Schulwerk has enlivened the teaching of music and dance in many parts of the world. | | | With the founding of the Günther School, a centre for education in gymnastics, rhythm, music and dance, Carl Orff developed a new model for teaching music and movement, the so-called Orff Schulwerk. |

| | arl Orff (1895-1982) is known both as one of the most important music educators of the 20th century and one of its most accessible composers. | | | The single drone of the lowest alto part and the repetitive chant-like melody heighten the verbal effect with but one progression at the very end of six pages of score bringing this vocal fanfare to an ecstatic conclusion. | | | Considering the nature of both Orff's compositional style and his educational method - the Song of the Sun, based on driving rhythms and ostinati and a famous text by Francis of Assisi, is a very different kind of music. |
