It's so moving.

I'm not sure if you mean the song they sing and which is used at the end:'The Snow it melts the soonest'
There are a few versions on You Tube.

No I meant the score..ie the classical composition that underlines the entire show.

As far as I'm aware it was Rob Lane who was the composer for the mini-series.

Did they not use Vaughan William's Lark Ascending

It isn'y the Lark Ascending though it sounds very similar. If someone knows, could they please say what the song/theme is called? Thanks

It's basically a score by Rob Lane and not yet available in stores.

I now have a copy made from someone who stripped the voices off on Youtube
