I love that kind of sound too. I didn’t see E.T. on your list, Thor. That “alone in the woods” stuff near the beginning is very religioso. I must admit that I adore the full “in yer face” religioso scores for the classic religiosos movies. My favourites come from Rózsa and Alfred Newman. As an antitheist, I wonder what I’m actually responding to here… Maybe it’s a bit like how I still get a thrill out of (some) horror films and scores, but I don’t believe in vampires either.

What about classical music? Top of my list would be some of Vaughan Williams. I also listened to Alan Hovahness’ “Mysterious Mountain” the other day. That fits the mold, and it’s not specifically “religious”, just kind of generally spiritual.
