Brin Addison - Carmina Burana “O Fortuna“ by Carl Orff - 15 string Harp Guitar
Brin Addison performs the first and second movements from Carmina Burana “Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi“ (Fortune, Empress of the World), on a 1940’s Hubert Herbeck 15 string Kontra Guitar, also know as a Harp guitar or Schrammel Guitar.
Harmonically the composition is not very complex but there is an underlying constant-motion rhythmic movement to it that seems to have a hypnotic quality about it. The challenge in performing this on guitar is to convey the intensity and dynamic range of a full orchestra on a single instrument that is not known for it’s fortissimo. I chose to introduce a more “Flamenco feel“ to it since the explosiveness of the style is well suited for the controlled chaos that O Fortuna is known for.
…even more TNT was required for detonation at the end.
The first 6 strings are tuned like a regular classical guitar, the 9 Sub-bass strings are traditionally tuned chromatically from D# down to G however for this piece I chose to tune them as follows: from highest to lowest D, C, Bb, A, G#, G, F#, F, D.
