Best Karmina Burana performance


I really like the performance of the Karmina Burana that's on the Usher demo CD from a couple of years ago (light colors indoor view of 'listening room', also has Marlene Dietrich cuts).

Does anyone recognize the performance, its conductor, or the label on which it was made?

I'm open to other recommendations if you really like another rendition.

Performance is more important than sound quality, but of course best of both would be great.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
