Off topic but still an important point:

There are at least two copyrights that you have to worry about: the music and the performance. The music is copyrighted under the writers name. But when someone remixes a song ... or covers a song in the case of your sample ... they are usually protected under a performance copyright.

So remixes and covers are still copyrighted just using a different form.

However, your posting the sample here would most likely be protected under the fair use law. You are asking a question about a song to provoke discussion.

On topic:
These are similar to what you might like

Or go to the library and check out Renaissance music or Music from the Middle Ages.
