JUST THE FACTS: • 10 years after the massive success of 'Pieces In A Modern Style' which sold more than
350,000 albums, superstar producer William Orbit releases his long-awaited second album
of trip-hop-classics
• As producer, ambient pioneer, studio master and omnipresent dance remixer, William
Orbit has worked with the biggest names in pop - Madonna, Blur, Robbie Williams, Étienne
Daho, Pink, All Saints and U2. He is probably best known for Madonna's Ray of Light,
which made him the hottest producer on the planet
• He has just produced the new Katie Melua album and is at work on the Nadine Coyle (Girls
Aloud) solo album. He has also been commissioned to write a piece for the 2010 Last
Night of the BBC Proms
• 2010 marks his 30th year working in the industry
• Orbit’s life changed dramatically after the 'Madonna phenomenon'. He made a decision to
withdraw from the pop rollercoaster when demands on his time became too consuming.
He then listened to – and arranged – classical music and says that it sustained him over
the years
• Volume 2. will include music by Puccini, Bellini, Elgar, Bach, Tchaikovsky, Grieg, Fauré and
more

JUST THE FACTS: • The Carmina Burana concerts in Munich in April 2010 got excellent reviews in the press.
• Characteristic are these comments in the Süddeutsche Zeitung: “All operatic and pseudo-
medievally picturesque features have been purged from this Carmina Burana. If one is at
first a bit surprised by how lean, modern and almost unsensuous the Bavarian Radio
Chorus and Tölz Boys Choir sound when delivering such juicy texts, the bigger picture
soon becomes clear: everything here – diction and verbal intonation especially – are
treated to a discipline that only heightens the unleashing of archaic elements out of the
rhythmic tension. The girlish, gleaming white tone of Patricia Petibon fits wonderfully into
this conception. Secure even in the highest heights, the French soprano presents the ‘Cour
d’amour’ with an insinuating chasteness in which the very act of denial hits directly below
the belt....Baritone Christian Gerhaher brings off the register shifts between melancholic
and bawdy with sovereign ease and masters the part’s demandingly high tessitura with
magnificent security. The timeless astringency that Orff calls for is finally realized so that
Carmina Burana no longer seems merely a higher grade of outdoor entertainment. Harding
discovers its truly medieval quality: immutability.”
ARTISTS: • Patricia Petibon
• Hans-Werner Bunz
• Christian Gerhaher
• Tölzer Knabenchor
• Chor des Bayerischen Rundfunks
• Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks / Daniel Harding
