: : It's a real pity that Orff's Entrada has appeared on vinyl (Westminister in the late '60s c/w Beethovens splendidly camp 'Wellington's Victory) only once and never on CD. It's scored for four orchestras and slowly builds up the hypnotic rhythm of Byrd's originak to a splendidly ic climax. One of my all-time favourites and someone really ought to reissue the original recording or re-record it on CD instead of the next addition to the 10,000 existing recordings of Carmina Burana.

: : Can anyone help me? I am trying to find the original source (somewhere in the music of Willam
: : Byrd) for what is identified in a composition by
: : Carl Orff as: "Entrata (Entrada?)after William
: : Byrd."

: :I have tried everything I know to come up with an answer; however, my knowledge of Orff's lesser
: :known (?) music, to say nothing of Byrd, has frustrated my every effort.

: : Thank you
