This is a strange record. Its music that Carl Orff wrote for the 1936 German Olympics. A youth orchestra is conducted by Gunild Keetman. Although famous for Carmina Burana, Orff mostly wrote music for children to play, often collaborating with Keetman. Certainly not the bombast you would except from the Nazi's Olympics.
