quest for dark orchestra

[funeralcrasher]

Found a lot of great pieces over the past couple days. Having to weed through a bunch of metal & neo-folk.

Just today I was listening to Doomed on SomaFM and heard a song by Bohern & Der Club of Gore which was just amazing. I thought I was on a chamber music station at first.. the piece was slow, sombre and had light saxophone blended in the background. Haunting, beautiful..

Once I have a list put together I'll post somewhere for others to use. :)

I like working to music without lyrics sometimes.. enjoy the industrial/soundtrack stuff (been listening to this a lot at work lately), but I've been craving something dark, but tradiitonal.. but not the neo-folk, neo-classical bands..

Have you ever listened to the Symphony of Sorrowful Songs? I found it in a bargain bin back in 1994, the Electra recording with Dawn Upshaw.. used the first movement as intro music for The Endless shows.. but my god.. I *love* the entire symphony.. I've heard other singers but this release with Upshaw is the one to look for...
