Modern classical music in gaming

[Jester]

More than a few pieces of the greatest 'classical' music was composed as homage to, or the accompaniment of, storytelling. They did not exist in a world onto themselves, but depended on the audience to connect the work to some other work.

I wouldn't even want to venture a guess at how many works have been composed to the story of "God becomes man, gets nailed to a cross, comes back to life."
