Carmina Burana: what's your favorite recording?


There are at least 30 recordings of this wonderful composition, so i could use a few recommendations. Thanks

I have several versions of Carmina, but the one I like best is the one recorded on Telarc. It has a very good performance, combined with excellent sound. I'm sure there are other very worthy renditions, but the Telarc version is the one that usually finds its way to my CD player.

My own one! Hard to praise one self, but according to the press it is a wonderful recording of a great live event.
I'd be glad to send it to you if you are ingterested.
The Jochum version on Deutsche. The best performance, IMO. The recording isn't all that bad either (on LP).
