How did you know???
One of my absolute choir favourites! Carmina Burana by Carl Orff with lyrics chosen by him from middle age scripts.

my good friend. . .
if a work of music can be a friend, Carmina Burana is my friend, and one of my very best friends.
For what do friends do? They help you find your wings, if you listen.

Beautiful
That was beautifully put! Somehow Orff managed to compose Carmina Burana in a way that gives the listener a feeling of flying away back to the Middle Ages.

The full name of this composition is

Carmina Burana: Cantiones profanae cantoribus et choris cantandae comitantibus instrumentis atque imaginibus magicis

or (freely translated)

Songs from Beuern: secular songs for singers and choirs to be sung together with instruments and magical pictures
