One of my favorite orchestral albums is by the artist BT. The album is kind of a mix between orchestral and electronic music, which together sounds absolutely amazing.

The album is the soundtrack to the movie Stealth.

It puts almost all other genres of music to shame.

I disagree.

I disagree.
It's my opinion.  But, in general, most other music is produced with hardly a crew in comparison to that of an orchestral's crew, usually a band consists of atleast 5-10 members.  An orchestral can consist of hundreds.  There's obviously a lot more effort put into it.

Would these count?
