Instrumental/Orchestrated Music

[Meganium]

I'm a huge video game enthusiast, and I say that video games offer the absolute best in orchestrated and instrumental music. Anyone care to prove me wrong?

Also, general instrumental music thread.

Yes, videogames do offer some beautiful both orchestrated and individual music. However the Saint Seiya OST beats any video game OSTs (save some exceptions).

Hans Zimmer in any movie he composed for, ever. TDKR is perfection.

Also, The Rite of Spring is best composition ever created.
