Can anyone tell me the name of the piece playing over the beginning of this episode of 'Civilisation?' It's killing me that I can't remember it.

Best answer: "Fanfare" from "L'Orfeo" composed by Claudio Monteverdi

I think it's a fanfare from L'Orfeo by Monteverdi.

Starts at about 35" in in this clip.
