Carmina Burana

So there's a ballet called Carmina Burana by a guy named Carl Orff that tells the story of humanity from creation to apocalypse. It's pretty dark -- I've heard the text is based on the writings of apostate monks from the 13th century who abandoned their faith to live a life of wantonness.

If I was in an instrumental rock band (like Mogwai, Mono, or Explosions in the Sky or something), I would love to do an album and/or a live show that does the same thing, but stays true to the story of humanity the Bible tells. It's a powerful story and it could comfortably be divided into distinct songs -- Creation, Fall, Redemption, Restoration, for example. Maybe you could even combine it with live painting or at least a trippy video on a projector.
