Title: Just Awful!
Review: This version of the Carl Orff masterpiece cruises along acceptably until the tenor solo. I had to take the CD out of the player to see if there was something wrong with it. It's just painful to listen to. Instead of this version, I would suggest either the Leonard Slatkin/St. Louis Symphony or the more recent version with Christian Thielemann/Duetsche Oper Berlin. Both treat the piece with the wild abandon and exitement it deserves and, more importantly all the soloists give fine performances in both versions.
