Carmena Burana
My dad's favorite
I'm moved by the soprano
A wave engulfs me

(100,972 posts)It's fun to perform.
O Fortuna is one of those pieces of music that makes me drop everything and listen to the end without any other distraction. I don't know what it is, perhaps the vibrations and combinations of sounds that cause this, but some music, in many genres, do this to me.

(26,781 posts)Another great piece of music. Saw Carmena Burana live last night performed by the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. I've seen it several times before but last night's performance was the best by far. It's going to be broadcast live tonight. I think you can view it at dso.org if you're interested.
