I'm just curious... does anyone know what song this is? It's right after Banquo is killed and they transition into the dinner scene right before the end of Act 1?
I've been really curious... Thanks!

It's an original composition by Adam Cork, with text by Pushkin which translates to something like, "I will follow..."
I asked Kate Fleetwood last week because I found it hauntingly beautiful.
