When I find search for ("carmina burana" lyrics), I find many sites such as this http://www.classical.net/~music/comp.lst/works/orff-cb/carmlyr.html which lists lyrics for 25 songs/movements/whatever. This lyric doesn't appear in any of them, and Googling the lyric itself leads mostly to an album by someone named Dave Soldier. I was able to determine that the lyrics may be in the poem numbered 76 out of the collection of over 1000 poems, but it seems to be not one of the 24 used by Orff unless classical.net is sadly incomplete. If these words are used in Orff's version, where are they/where should they be? If I listened to it (on Napster), would I hear this part? Perhaps the countertenor is often left out? ("vive il cotello" and all that).

That's it. They're not used in Orff's version. He took verses 1, 3, and 5 of the original 5 verse poem in the collection of a hundred some odd wild and wooly love, drinking and generally rowdy songs and poems collected by medieval monks of the Benediktbeuren Monastery.

Anna's first comment implies the lyric is from the solo. She should have said it's from the same poem that the lyrics for the solo were taken. The later comments compounded my misunderstanding that meaning that you both had sung those words. Etaoin, I enjoyed listening to your solo. Compares quite well with the verson I listened to on Napster (It's this one... http://www.amazon.com/Orff-Carmina-Burana-Jonathan-Summers/dp/B00001ZSXC) (the Latin is rather differently pronounced though).

Not bad, etaoin, in fact the singing was good...very good...maybe too good.
Are you sure that you weren't put on stage just for your good looks and lip-synched?
