Good choice, that is one of my favorites. Also I would have to say this is another good one.

The saddest thing is that I, too, was rickrolled.
And after TC had posted as well, simply because I was too lazy to look further down the thread. 
But much kudos from me to Rill for Ennio Morricone (though I think this link is a much better example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oag1Dfa1e_E" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oag1Dfa1e_E ), Grego for Carl Orff, and practically anything with Charlotte Church being ethereal and otherworldly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuvAiLzyL1o" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuvAiLzyL1o" rel="nofollow - (Gandalf's "death" after the Mines of Moria springs to mind instantly) gets a big thumbs up from me!

EDIT: Discovered the LOTR link above wasn't CC, but Mabel Faletolu singing instead, apologies! CC does sing on the http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fryqAznHicw" rel="nofollow - Arwen motif though.

I should also add (I gave it as a christmas present to myself) that if you're looking for Epic.. the http://www.amazon.com/Music-John-Williams-Years-Film/dp/B0000C6K09" rel="nofollow - John Williams 40 yrs retrospective is stunning...
For those that don't know him, he's the guy who wrote the theme for Jaws.
Oh, and Indiana Jones. And Schindler's List. And Saving Private Ryan. And Superman. And Harry Potter. And Star Wars. And.. and.. and...
I still live in awe of his output, and if you're looking for pure talent in modern thematic motifs, I think he's unbeatable.
There are a few select others, notably John Barry of James Bond, Zulu, Midnight Cowboy, Raise the Titanic, Out of Africa fame; and Danny Elfman of everything from The Simpsons to Batman, from Good Will Hunting to Men In Black... who are well worth a look for modern epic scores!

IMO, despite the most unbelievably impressive entries (including my own)... I have to give it so far to Prometheuz... There is nothing, imo, more epic than this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygNuRpwZqRU&feature=related
Relive it on repeat all!
And if you have any that you think can beat it, please, please post here!!!
Edit: Prometheuz... are you the same as the CalequendiCrows member, PrometheusX?
(because I'd hoped to send you a prize, but I don't want to send it to the wrong person!)
thx!

Prometheusx is Promethuez.... Yes indeed.... Thank you for your offer .... However I did not realise that this was a competition and participated just for fun.... I must decline your generous offer of a prize....please give it to someone else.

I think a soundtrack on it's own is only worth half as much as the right soundtrack for the right movie or video. It's contextual if you ask me, needs to be fitting for the scene or theme/setting.
