Even enthusiasts for the thrills of Orff's Carmina Burana aren't generally aware that he composed it as part of a trilogy he labeled "Trionfi", with Catulli Carmina and Trionfo di Afrodite being the other two.

An unusual two disc set including all three features a Carmina Burana that's as exciting as any of the twenty or so that I've heard, in excellent sound. Catulli and Trionfo, although probably not overall matching it in interest, are a substantial bonus.

Available from Amazon sellers at bargain prices around $8 up for the two disc set.
