About a Song in Might and Magic VI

Unread postby Phobos » 20 Jul 2006, 21:37

A lovely, melancholy background song plays in the Temple of Baa in Castle Ironfist. I've heard the piece somewhere else as well, in real life as well, and I'd very much like to know what it's called. Can anyone help me?

IIRC, that same theme also plays in the abandoned temple in New Sorpigal, GoblinWatch, and other assorted dungeons. It's a pretty common dungeon theme for this game.

The song is the famous Adagio by Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni.

This song was in fact "reconstructed" in 1945 by Remo Giazotto after much of Albinoni's work was lost in the bombing of the Dresden State Library during WWII.

Thanks! :-D Now I'll just try to find it somewhere and learn to play it.
