The orchestra's own note states the work "frames its three main sections with a prologue and epilogue featuring Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi," quoting the chorus itself on the wheel of fortune turning and casting the goddess as the cosmic power the whole cantata answers to.FactsCross-Tradition ConnectionsClaims Backed By This Source (14 claims)Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)FactsCitationPublisherWell-attestedSchott Music; Des Moines SymphonyURLWell-attestedhttps://www.schott-music.com/en/o-fortuna-noc346116.htmlSource TypeWell-attestedinstitutional recordAssessmentReliability TierWell-attested1The composer's own publisher's catalogue entry for the score, paired with a performing orchestra's own published programme note explaining the piece's framing device and naming Fortuna as its subject.Cross-Tradition ConnectionsAssociated WithFortuna, Deities Well-attested This source names Fortuna directly: "own publisher catalogue entry for "O Fortuna, No."Source O Fortuna, Schott Music and Des Moines Symphony Records (Carl Orff, Carmina Burana)tier 1Claims Backed By This Source (14 claims)This source backs 14 claims across the atlas.
