    Rite is one of the most moving and terrifying pieces of music I know.

    Finally, the five minute version of Oh Fortuna! Im sick of the 3min version! I've loved this peice since I first saw Excalibur in the 80's.

    Ah, well. Seems it's just the 3 min version sung rather slowly. Ah well.

    I love me some Henrik Gorecki Symphony no.3 for gaming.
