Help me identify this piece of classical music from a Japanese trailer.

What piece of classical music is this?

Other music in the trailer is Ravel's Bolero, and the two psychedelic rock songs are Mabushii and Kudo Desu, both by Yura Yura Teikoku.

I can't get this specific piece out of my head!

If you like that piece, there's a movie called 'The Fall" that uses it beautifully.

Also used in the closing scene of Zardoz.
