Lovers of Carmina Burana, here's the flip side of Carl Orff. Similar methods--simple material repeated in intricate patterns--but an entirely different outcome. Schulwerk, a collection of teaching pieces begun in 1930 and ... more »further extended in the 1950s, is a collaboration between Orff and colleague Gunild Keetman that celebrates the primacy of rhythm and pulse in our musical makeup and shows that educational music need never be dull. This disc, the first of a series that appeared in the centennial year of Orff's birth (1995), features performers who worked with the composer during his lifetime. The renditions can be considered definitive. --Ted Libbey« less

True Musica: Orff v. Zimmer, "Badlands" v. "True Romance"

"Carl Orff fans must read the jewel in this CD's booklet found at the bottom of the 6th page from the back in "THE RECORDING" section. It relates the "unwanted merriment on the occasion of Orff's 75th birthday" concerning a performance of the first (and most famous) song in this collection. This recording is great and commences with a rich (though slower) rendition of the "Badlands" theme "Gassenhauer" ("Streetsong") on track 1. Unfortunately, there never was a soundtrack album produced for "Badlands". I can not find any of the other "Badlands" songs from Musica Poetica on this CD and none are on the companion CD "O-S Vol. 2 / Musik fur kinder". "The Best Of Carl Orff", BMG 75605 51357 2, 1999 has the original "Gassenhauer" plus one of the other "Badlands" songs from Musica Poetica - Passion (house fire music). All Badlands Orff/Keetman songs can, however, be found on the 1994 BMG release (RCA Victor Red Seal) 6-CD box set version of the original Orff/Keetman recordings done between 1963 & 1975 on 10 LPs. There are at least 4 other "Badlands" pieces!

There are at least 5 other "Badlands" pieces (09026 68031 2)! Keetman did two of the other 5 mentioned above, Orff the other 3.

Now for the truth: The main theme "Gassenhauer" was composed by Orff's associate Gunild Keetman BASED ON A 1536 WORK FOR LUTE BY HANS NEUSIEDLER! Orff's stated goal for the Schulwerk: "Improvisations which encourage further improvisation". This is precisely what Hans Zimmer did when he PRODUCED (no writing credits on soundtrack CD) 3 pieces loosely based on "Gassenhauer" for the film "True Romance", written by Quentin Tarantino as his tribute to the movie "Badlands": "You're So Cool", "Stars At Dawn", & "Amid The Chaos Of The Day". These are a fine & fitting tribute to Malick, Keetman/Orff, and, yes, especially Nuesiedler - Zimmer did NOT "rip off Orff". Is not imitation the sincereist form of flattery?"
This is the music used in "Badlands."

"I love this beautiful, mysterious, somewhat trance inducing music- it is ahead of its time.I completely agree with the reviewer who noted that Hans Zimmer ripped off Orff (ha ha) and as it turns out, the score that Zimmer "wrote" for "True Romance" was in keeping with the whole plagaristic enterprise: "True Romance" is a weak version of the classic "Badlands" all the way down to the score."
Hans Zimmer ripped Orff off

"Buy this CD today! This is simply beautiful music. However, if you've ever seen the movie TRUE ROMANCE or heard the soundtrack, Hans Zimmer wrote a recurring marimba theme for the scored sections of the film that is almost identical to MUSICA POETICA, and he gave absolutely NO CREDIT to Carl Orff in the liner notes of the CD soundtrack. Sure, as musicians, we are constantly borrowing from each other, but to do such a blatant simulation of someone else's work and not even give them a thank you or simple credit in the liner notes is criminal and cowardly. My respect for Hans Zimmer has greatly dropped. My respect for Carl Orff's music continues to grow."
Finally available on CD !

"Lovely simple charming music, along the lines of works by Bartok, Kodaly and Gurdjeff. A must get for lovers of sonic oddities. Hoping more volumes will be released"
Simple, beautiful, fun

"From the liner notes: "The more fundamental and simplified the musical expression, the more direct and powerful the effect" - Carl OrffThe film "Badlands" used one of the works appearing on this CD, although the film's music was performed by a different group and recorded much earlier than this CD. The sonics of this CD are outstanding."
