...then be sure to check out this band.
They make some really great orchestral music, and quite a lot of it, too. And another good point is that most of their tracks are not only free to listen to, but also freely downloadable if you have a free account on SoundClick.

Check out this awesome stuff.

Sorry if this seems like a thread derailing, but it just reminded me so much of this fantastic orchestral arrangement of the music from Giana Sisters from the C64. It is a board for good old games after all ;-)

This reminds me of an Hungarian band playing re-made classic music (with drums and such) my father told me about. The name was Ex Antiquist, I believe, or something like that.

@KavazovAngel, Wishbone
Good stuff, fits perfectly here! :-)
@klaymen
Yes, we did have such a band, but even I don't know much about them.

I always thought that the only people who liked classical music were serial killers and mad villains.

And we all know that GoG has plenty of both!

Now I have to kill you.

Excuse me officer, I'm looking for a little kid named Timmy. I am his English teacher. Do you know where I can find him?
:ninja:

No, it's only that they apparently make sure to put great emphasis on it.

This is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful pieces of classical music ever composed. It's a choral piece, so don't listen if you hate choral singing.
Gabriel Fauré - Cantique de Jean Racine

Speaking of awesome orchestral pieces... I think this (Anno 1701 main theme) is one of the most terrific pieces of orchestral game music.
(Also, Anno 1701 has a stunningly great soundtrack as a whole.)
