Final answer:

Without access to the specific recording of Carmina Burana, it is not possible to provide the exact timing of movement 1. However, the terms provided in the options describe musical tempo and dynamics, not specific timings.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question pertains to the timing of movement 1 of Carmina Burana, a scenic cantata composed by Carl Orff. The options provided include terms that describe either tempo (the speed of music), or dynamics (the volume of music). Since the question appears to be about a specific recording, without having access to that recording, it is impossible to accurately denote the start and end times of the movement. However, typically, the terms allegro and adagio are indicators of tempo, not timing or duration. Likewise, forte and piano are dynamic markings indicating 'loud' and 'soft,' respectively, while crescendo and decrescendo suggest a gradual increase and decrease in volume. The terms andante and allegro are also related to tempo, with the former meaning moderately slow or walking pace, and the latter indicating a fast, lively speed.
