This famed work by German composer Carl Orff (1895-1982) is based on a collection of goliard songs of the 12th and13th centuries, which were found in the 19th century in a document found in Benediktbeuern Abbey (Bavaria). The term Goliard was used in the Middle Ages to refer to certain types of vagabond and licentiousness clerics.
