RE: Hamlet Theme Music

There's Greek music all around Pompeii, I mean the entire area is playing Greek music. Although, it does fit somewhat, and I kind of like it, so I don't mind.
 
It should be known, if I'm around my friends and we hear classical music of any type they will say, "Hey, this reminds me of Busch Gardens." It's sad to see that all the music that is fond of many memories about the park is being taken away, my friends will be devastated to not hear the music that always loops in their memories of Busch Gardens.
 
Here is a recording I made in Pompeii's building while I was on tour. I have always wanted the music from the ride...but I have had no luck finding it. It's not very good...but it's something. Would love to get a good recording of it.

Sorry to put this up on HOS opening weekend. I just needed to get it off my plate. I've been working on completing Shane's list. I noticed the repeats were very few when passing through Killarney, unlike other Hamlets in the park. It took 6 and a half hours of listening to finally get the cycle. I've done the best that I can at also identifying the actual performers of the list.

This is for Killarney in August of 2014. There is a loop of music that is approximately 5 hours and 7 minutes long. There are 82 songs. One (No. 49 and 50) is repeated back-to-back making this list 83 songs long. I'm wondering if this repeat is the beginning and end of the loop. I did not start until 10am, so I do not know where the list beings. However, these are in the actual order of play.

There is a "public service announcement" by the park every 30 minutes or so. There are 10 announcements total.

Also, there are TWO tracks played from different speakers in Killarney. The speakers mounted high play the music while several small speakers, mounted low or in bushes, play background noise. Like people talking, birds, etc. Some of these "hidden" speakers play the music, too.

Suggestions or corrections welcome. Criticism dealt with tersely. :)

wow there's more than 5 songs on that list? I always hear the same 5 songs when I'm over there, I didn't know that there were more than that. (half serious half joking.)
