Your PC is laisy?

It's a standard .WAV file encoded in mp3 @ 44,1kHz 120kbps stereo, with windows xp sound recorder. I get that with vlc sometimes, just select the file and open with:, either windows media player, or sound recorder itself.
Unless you don't have mp3 codec? Which I'm not sure comes standard in windows (I'm assuming you're using windows).

The melody is a work for string orchestra by American composer Samuel Barber. It's the second movement from his first String Quartet No. 1, Op. 11.

Although, I first heard this from trance music DJ and producer Tiesto. He sampled it for his song Adaigo For Strings. The original song is usually played to remember the September 11th attacks.

DJ Tiesto's version:

Thanks Andrew! Very Happy
I had that melody in my head, but could not remember where I heard it from or what was it's name. Indeed it is a dramatic/emotional melody, I guess that must have been why it stuck in my head Smile
