		Orff's "Carmina Burana" has provided the soundtrack for at least two highly successful advertising campaigns, and has featured in horror movies, comedies, science fiction, fantasy, and practically every form of drama and visual entertainment you could imagine.

		Possibly the key to the piece is the fact that, while a couple of the selected highlights of "Carmina Burana" have become famous thanks to adverts and cinema use, the overall work (approximately an hour in length) is a much more complex whole than its parts might suggest.
