This arrangement, closely based on the original, was created to give choirs in areas with few symphony orchestras but substantial, high quality wind bands the chance to perform 'Carmina Burana'. The vocal parts as well as the piano and percussion parts have been taken over unchanged from the original score. The Spaniard Juan Vicente Mas Quiles is an internationally famous expert for wind band music.

For soprano soloist, mixed choir, and orchestra or ensemble (with organ). This is one of the best-loved and most widely performed choral works of the twentieth century. The texts (in Latin and English) are from the Missa pro Defunctis, the Book of Common Prayer, and the Psalms. The seven sections form an arch-like meditation on the themes of life and death: prayers on behalf of all humanity, psalms, personal prayers to Christ, and in the central Sanctus an affirmation of divine glory. The full scores have been edited and engraved by the composer himself and are. presented in handsome, cloth-bound editions. Vocal and orchestral material is available on hire.
