VIDEO GAMES LIVE Civilization IV segment from DVD, Blu-Ray & CD

This is the Video Games Live Civilization IV segment written by Christopher Tin. We entitled this piece Civilization IV - Baba Yetu (Duet Version). It features original Baba Yetu singer Ron Ragin (on the right) who performs with us from time to time and was present for the world premiere of this piece at our 2nd Hollywood Bowl performance in 2006. It also showcases the vocal talents of Kendrew Heriveaux (on the left) whom we met performing for us during one of our shows in 2009 and sometimes performs with us as well.

Composer Christopher Tin put out his own CD entitled "Calling All Dawns" which featured the song Baba Yetu as well as other original material. Highly recommended.

I probably clock as many hours leaving the game on the menu just to listen to this as I actually played the game itself. When I launched the game on my PC for the first time many years back, I fell in love with this song right away. I was there listening to the music for a long time while watching the earth turning day and night animation on the menu.

Managed to catch this on Sky Arts, thankfully. This was the best part. Such an incredible, incredible performance. Really hoping I get to see it live, I can only imagine how amazing it would be

It's the circle of life! and the winds of Oh wait wrong Song.

The Lord's Prayer - definitely more beautiful in this language with this music than in English.

This....gave me so many chills. Combination of good music, huge live orchestra, and "Our Father" in Swahili.

This rendition makes all the hairs on my body go on alert. I love this song, I love Sid Meier, I love Christopher Tin, I love Civ IV....thank you.

I heard this song live last year and it blew me away. It's truly a breathtaking song! Congrats on the grammy Mr. Tin. It is well deserved.
