   but to different destinations.

Finance? That's the last thing a 'true artist' thinks about ;-)

OK, OK, we're both cynics

OMG, haven't heard that track for years. Reminds me of a long defunct
relationship (she had the album).
Any chance of a .mp3 or .ogg?

Much of it seems to be on youtube.

Most of what he does is re-perform classics, so you can't fault him if it's 
not interesting. ;-)

I find many of the pieces to be quite enjoyable to listen to; kinda like 
listening to Tangerine Dream perform the Promenade movement of Pictures 
at an Exhibition.

cool, but no youtube access at work.  checking out when getting home...

BTW, Sony did release the 3 OST's from the 3 God of War games:

http://www.godofwar.com/ucmdev/groups/public/documents/webasset/g3_trilogy_soundtrack.zip

very worth to check out, 4 composers did an amazing job of creating a 
wonderful movie-class orchestral soundtrack complete with a large choir, 
inspired by greek mythology.  Alternating epic brass sections and heavy 
strings with more intimate mystique moments I guess it was one of the 
best soundtracks coming from games in the last few years... which is a 
shame considering most people still think of bleeps and blops when it 
comes to game music...

Don't know if the link is still working though, it supposedly was posted 
with free acess either for mistake or for limited time.  It's blocked 
here, but I downloaded at home a few days ago...
