What is the best "Carmina Burana" CD you've heard?

To insert a divergent view, and since you did not specify the Holst "Carmina Burana," allow me to suggest the original version -- Rene Clemencic and the Clemencic Consort on the Harmonia Mundi label: HMC 90335 (single CD) and HMA 190336.38 (3 CDs).

This is decidedly NOT the Holst 20th Century adaptation of this music. It is from the original manuscript as interpreted and presented on original instruments and in period performance practice. Marvelously recorded and performed.

Thanks Travis! Fingers banging the keyboard without mind being engaged... Of course it's Orff.

By the way, my favorite performance of the Orff has always been the De Burgos performance -- EMI SAN 162 (LP). Not mentioned thus far in this thread, but it may not be available on CD at this time.

Cheers!
