That's not the General MIDI distribution. And not the distribution of most digital pianos. They usually have Electric Piano before the Organ sounds.
Maybe a sound library?

It's from the original tubular bells. The Mike Oldfield album? Never heard it. At least not consciously.

Tubular Bells was used in part for the soundtrack to The Exorcist. The album released at the same time has better parts than the movie used, especially from 19:40 to 24:24 on that YouTube link.

And it wasn't some B-movie, it was a major production, with noted actors, it made a lot of money, and won Oscars. And was banned from video in Britain from about 1984 to about 1999. Which was bullshit! What are we? Pussies? Fucking pansy BBFC!!! Assholes!!!! Way to set us back to the Stone Age, wankers. 😐 In fact, to show you how stupid that was - it was available on video in the early 80s. It was banned when the BBFC took over censoring videos because of the whole video nasty bullshit, yet Exorcist was never on any nasties list.

Scared the living crap out of me at the time and have never been able to watch it since, though I have most likely seen much scarier stuff since. Bone Tomahawk is another I couldn't watch again. One scene in that left its mark!

It was banned when the BBFC took over censoring videos because of the whole video nasty bullshit, yet Exorcist was never on any nasties list. It was a phenomenon and made a lot of money for certain. I think some people watched it like a train wreck though, not wanting to watch just not turning away. I thought it was a really good movie except for the foul language. I think they have the "mature audience" warning backwards. Mature audiences don't need to hear that sort of language. Immature audiences go for that sort of thing. If you can get an edited for television version that would be a really great movie. I have the complete boxed set The Exorcist The Exorcist II The Heretic The Exorcist III The Exorcist the Beginning (2004) Dominion prequel to the Exorcist (2005) I and III are the best, but none of them are edited for television. I would have paid extra for that. I like some of Richard Burton's work especially 1984 (The movie based on the "futuristic" book titled "1984" by George Orwell in 1949, the movie released in 1984). The 4th and 5th Exorcist movies are the same movie, set in the same place, at the same time, with mostly the same characters. A few characters are different. Some key events are different. That is bizarre, is it not? What other movies have done that? It seems like picking over junk in a garage sale when they do that. The 4th and 5th movies were especially anti-militaristic and, perhaps not surprisingly, were not as successful.

I've actually always hated that "announcing the arrangement" bit, but I like the music. I just wish Oldfield had turned the vocal mic off.

It was a phenomenal movie, almost everyone older has seen it in the theater, on television, or on DVD. If not, they have heard about it more than they would like. The audience for the album is surprisingly smaller. That's why so many don't get the reference, "Grand piano, reed and pipe, glockenspiel ... " The album got a Grammy and was a chart topper here and there.

The 4th and 5th movies were especially anti-militaristic and, perhaps not surprisingly, were not as successful. 4th and 5th are basically two versions of what the 4th was supposed to be, 5th is a rejected version, 4 was result of extensive reshoots and new director. Closest I can think to it is Superman II, and the Richard Donner cut version. The Donner Cut is a very rough approximation of how the original director planned to make it, with less comedy, a bit more faithfulness to the character (no sudden new powers), no stupid memory wiping kiss, a more understanding Lois than the whiny me me me one. Only thing is, Superman turning back time again. It was meant to feature in II, but seeing it happen again just comes off as a lazy "it was all a dream" type ending.
