Very impressive Kubrick video

Two questions. Can anyone tell me what the music is? And did the video make anyone else think of Sapphire and Steel?

I can't answer the second part because I'm not familiar with that but I own two versions of that song:
The original is "Lux Aeterna" by Clint Mansell for the movie Requiem for a Dream

The version being used in that clip (great clip, btw), is the remake with a choir and full orchestra for the trailer for The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers and renamed "Requiem for a Tower"

Consequently it's also been used more than once by figure skaters

Thanks for that.

The video is rather good, isn't it? As for Sapphire & Steel, if you have a look on Youtube for the opening titles, you may see what I mean.

The movie is awesome, by the way. If miserably depressing.

Fair enough. Only thing by Aronofsky I've seen is Pi, which was not the happiest of films.
