Cue of the Week: “Chant of War”
This choral/orchestral piece accompanies a cut-scene in Empire Earth 2 wherein the historical Knights Templar are cast in an ominous light. The lyrics are a twisted take on Kyrie Eleison; while the chorus starts with the conventional words, the basses and tenors, singing in counterpoint, switch to Ohi Eleison – “No Mercy”.
Performance by the Budapest Film Orchestra and Chorus.
