Civilization IV Diplomacy Themes- Frederick's Theme

This is Frederick II of Germany's* diplomacy theme from Civilization IV, and probably among the best diplomacy themes from the game. The song in question is Johan Sebastian Bach's 4th Goldberg Variation,adapted for an orchestra.

*Which is ironic, considering that he hated German culture

really its hard to understand why poeple write classical music, but my guess on this is bach wrot eit to show his feeling about germany and its culture, since i am german i also feel this fits best for it.

He actually wrote this so one of his patrons could fall asleep easily.

@TheHKY09

A flame war what I guess the internet term for an argument is. However, they are often much more bloodier than most arguments.

J.S. Bach, Goldberg Variation, No. 4.

[SuperTravis898]

@Kronimiciad yes, although I am not sure what would give the inspiration for rap. Pop tends to reveil problems in the writers life.

[Kronimiciad]

Ahem. Old MAN Frederick.

[Kronimiciad]

1:37- OLD MANY FREDERICK

@SuperTravis898 I could ask the same as to why people bother to breathe in or think. Or why people write rap or pop music.
