I believe it was put together in the 1800s, but parts originally written as early as the 13th century. I was part of a 300 person choir that sang the whole thing (it's long.. over an hour, maybe two) -- translated into English, there's talk of sex in the outdoors, people getting drunk, all sorts of debauchery. :thumbup:

edit: here's a website that has the entire thing in MIDI format http://www.anthea2.freeuk.com/carminaburana/

and a website with the complete lyrics in the original Latin/German and English translation: http://www.classical.net/~music/comp...b/carmlyr.html

yes, I know I'm a dork h:


That was hilarious, btw... :rofl:

Oh, and NWS means "Not Work Safe"
