Howdy,
 I looked on the Hoo website, Googled it, etc., I can't seem to find it anywhere. I'd like to get a copy to listen to the whole tune..
Anybody have any info??

When listening to the music on Gun Stories, it invoked feelings of some force ... a groundswell ...  moving forward .... relentless ... unstoppable.....

The lyrics tell of Fortune and Fate....  following the feelings I have listening to it.

Here are some links to versions of it...the first one is with English lyrics sub-titled and the last is the full performance..over an hour showing the ensemble used to create this music.  

Awesome and moving.  Thank you, Don, for the name.

Not your typical Rock or Country fare.

Well, after more checking around, I'm not sure Carmina Burana is the music used for the theme.

While they are similar, I do not know if it is the same music.

It might be a variation or a different arrangement of the music, but I am not a musician so I cannot tell.

Following Marshall's original information, I found  this.

http://www.firstcom.com/#/en/BROWSE/browsed-results.aspx?SelectedCDId=6839

See line #16 in the second grouping  Discovery

The info for Resolution Reaction lists Kavin Hoo as the composer and no credit to Carminia Burana.

The info list this for the work: 
Moods
Confident, Determined, Building, Anticipation, Dangerous, Tense


And hits the nail on the head.

If you just can't get enough of the intro to Gun Stories, this is for  you:
