Does anyone know what the music is from that is on the Gangs of New York trailer attached to Road to Perdition? It was a really good, haunting choral melogy, and I would like to know is will it be in Gangs of New York, or is it from something that has already been released?

I haven"t actually seen RtP yet, so I"m not sure which Gangs of New York trailer is attached to it (there are two), but from your description I think the music you heard was "Charging Fort Wagner" from James Horner"s score to Glory.

It looks like you are correct sir. Soundtrack.net's trailer section says that the Crow and GLory were used.

He's correct. I've seen the trailer he's referring to and it is "Charging Fort Wagner."

I don't think it was Glory. For the Road to Perdition trailers, these musics were used.

I thought 'Gangs' was going to be more or less an historic representation. After all, there were really gangs of this nature, with these names that acted in this way. But if you've read any of the available historic descriptions, this movie didn't even come close! In reality, Five Points Square was running with raw sewage in the gutters, squalid, poverty-run, but in the movie was so CLEAN the pigs didn't even poop on it! Of course they wouldn't have had any excrement smeared children in the movie, would they? No aborted fetuses in the back alleys, surely not. But why make these nicely lit, comfy underground tunnels, when the real ones used to stink like bilge, run with rats and disease, and drown unsuspecting sleepers whenever the tides came in? The movie didn't even make Five Points look crowded. As a story, it was OK, but if you're going to try for realistic, then please invest in a little realism.

I know it now, it is "Dionysis" from the Gangs of New York Soundtrack.
