📝 Description

The English National Opera Orchestra and Chorus perform Carl Orff’s composition, ‘O Fortuna’, conducted by Paul Daniel. The performance took place at Classic FM Live in 2023. ‘O Fortuna’ is a movement taken from Orff's cantata, ‘Carmina Burana’, which draws its material from a collection of 24 medieval Latin poems.

The title translates to ‘Oh Fate’. The piece functions as a lament concerning the inescapable influence of fate, a concept central to Roman and Greek mythology that governs both deities and humanity. The composition is frequently utilized in popular culture, appearing in motion pictures such as 'Excalibur' and 'Natural Born Killers', as well as in television programs like 'The X Factor'.
