Orbe Rotundo – From Life, Magic and Death - for vocal solos, choir and orchestra is a scenic picture book on the liturgical year based on Latin and medieval texts. The 50-minute work has the same instrumentation as Orff's "Carmina Burana" and is conceived as its sister work and modern update. We spoke with the composer Enjott Schneider about his work.
