This Buffy promo uses a variation of a classical song, does anyone know which one it is?

I edited this promo 15 years ago, and would like to use that track again but I can’t remember what it was.

I believe it is something by Mozart. It was also used in an episode of Midsomer Murders “Death of a Hollow Man.” Or at least it sounds like it.

Missed the edit window. Who knew there was a soundtrack for the show.

[I found it on Amazon Denmark](http://www.amazon.de/Inspector-Barnaby-Soundtrack-Original-Musik-Serie/dp/B004BYXV84/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1412362248&sr=8-1&keywords=midsomer+murders+soundtrack)

The 13th track “The Madonna’s Statue” sounds very similar.
