Hi all,

I have been searching for some time to identify a snippet of classical music used in the IT crowd sitcom on TV some years ago. You can listen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGBv8j4Xb3E#t=55s

I thought it might be Tchaikovsky or one of the "mighty five" (although maybe it's an imitation), in any case I have failed to uncover any info about this music. Please put me out of my misery!

Any suggestions appreciated.

It's Mussorgsky's intermezzo in act IV of Khovanshchina.

Well spotted Luigi Petrarch, it was familiar to me also, but I just couldn't place it.   :-\

The credit is not mine, I used Shazam and it worked perfectly :P (http://www.shazam.com/music/web/iphone.html).
