Narrative:
No WX, no unusual pitch attitudes, no wake turbulence, no evidence of bird strike per ord mechanic. Sudden vibration then exploding noise as #2 engine stalled. Brought power to idle, #2 engine egt rose to 670 degrees and smelled burning odor. Followed engine stall ECAM, which came up first, then engine shutdown ECAM. Engine was shut down in less than 1 1/2 mins from point of stall period.
