	This may sound weird but does anyone know what music is used in the
US Volkswagen commercials currently being aired on TV?  I find it very
relaxing and moving.  It sounds like Irish folk singing, primarily a slow
female voice, with other voices joining in, and some tones underneath.
(Like I know what Irish folk music is like.)  It communicates to me the
struggle of humanity and the determination of the human spirit to
overcome.  I keep picturing a group of people traveling over frozen
tundra to find a better home.  I sure hope it wasn't just for the commercial,
but I think I heard something like it in a movie before too.  I REALLY want
to know who made this music; it's very soothing, but I don't really want
a Volkswagen, just the music.  :)  Anyone know?

P.S. - Hello to those who may remember me.
