Carmina is a Zeuhl band from Chaumont, France, that opened for Magma for 4 dates in 1976.

Not very much is known about this band. Very few recordings exist. The drummer, Manuel Denizet, later went on to play with John Greaves of Henry Cow fame. And, according to Canterbury expert Aymeric Leroy, Gisselman was supposed to join National Health. And, from the Ork Alarm article, "Phillippe Gisselman to join Yochk'o Seffer's Neffesh Music. Gisselman then joined Serge Bringolf's Strave and worked with Seffer on John Greaves album 'Accident' in 1982."

This recording is from the 1977 band. The 1976 band that opened for Magma had different instrumentation and a different sound. Magma fan Jacques Guiton said that the instrumentation for this concert was "drums, two keyboards, vibes, bass and male vocals".
