Trionfo di Afrodite (Italian, literally Triumph of Aphrodite) is a cantata called "concerto scenico" (scenic concert) written in 1951 by the German composer Carl Orff. It is part of Trionfi, the musical triptych that also includes Carmina Burana and Catulli Carmina. In this case, "Trionfo" refers to the Roman and Renaissance trionfo, meaning "procession" or "festival". Trionfi was premiered in 1953 at La Scala in Milano, conducted by Herbert von Karajan.
