They cry out O Fortuna! In hope for a better life. “At the end of the year, the people cry out to Fortune (spirit of good luck). “Carl Orff wrote this collection of movements based on poems from the 13th century and called it the Songs of Bueran or Carmina Burana.” In this section, I’ll share the story I tell and the activities I ask the students to do.
I don’t share all the movements (there are 25!), but I do hit a few of the most popular ones.Īfter the students are familiar with all the movements (I typically only do one per day, and then move on to our other music activities), I will then have the students listen/move to the entire thing. The story I use is based on the actual text and elements of the movements. Usually, I’ll introduce each of the movements separately with the following story along with it. I often play movements from this piece for my students.
