Anyone recognize this DeBeer's commercial theme?

A friend ants to know if it's a real piece, with a real composer and everything, or just some faux Vivaldi written expressly for the commerical.

The De Beers theme is Karl Jenkins' "Theme from Palladio". A contemporary, 'real' piece of music.  :)

Sonata33

The Karl Jenkins album that is on is called "Diamond Music." Give it a listen; the other movements of Palladio are actually more fascinating, as is the quartet.
