1st reaction: laughed till I cried. (the Carmina Burana is a faviorite of mine).
2nd reaction: how great must the people who thought it up feel.
3rd reaction: how strange is our world/society that human effort would be put into such a creation? I'm not sure whether is a sign of progress above a subsistence level of existence that leads to creation of interesting things, or a sign of regression by wasting resources when so many in the world need help.
Always there has been some terrible evil to gobble us up if we did not blindly rally behind it by furnishing the exorbitant sums demanded. Yet, in retrospect, these disasters seem never to have happened, seem never to have been quite real.
