quest for dark orchestra

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. :)

Is this kinda in the vein you're looking for, Theatre of Tragedy uses alot of classical piano and operatic signing with gothic metal stuff:

They has some good records in the '90s and early '00s but have gone really darkwave synth as of late (which isn't so much my kind of stuff).
