Carl Orff was a German composer, best known for his cantata 'Carmina Burana', which was composed in 1936. His work is characterized by its rhythmic vitality and accessibility, blending classical music with elements of folk and popular styles. 'Carmina Burana' has become one of the most frequently performed choral works in the concert repertoire, celebrated for its dramatic themes of fortune, love, and the cycles of life.
