History was made on Sunday as the video game music industry scored its first ever Grammy. The beautifully composed theme song of Civilization IV won the Grammy award for Best Instrumental Arrangement Accompanying Vocalist(s).

People who really like piano music should get a kick out of this one. I found it really really good.

Re: Civilisation theme song won a grammy.
I thought Mass Effect 2 was so cinematic it could have been a film. Maybe Mass Effect 3 will actually be a great story in addition to cinematic and a great game (cause let's face it, the story of ME2 wasn't exactly mindblowing).
That's a great song Peltz. Gaming is long due for awards on music. The Divinity games (which work with a composer) are a point in case.
