The song that i love is carmina burana by mozart. It is the kind of classical song that is usually played in movie trailers. very deep and moving.
What other classical songs are like that one?

By Mozart? By now you'll probably have heard it's by Orff, and you most likely mean just 'O fortuna'. It opens and ends the whole of Carmina Burana, which is more a like an hour long. There's lots of brilliant stuff in it, check out the whole thing. Another obvious choice is the Mozart Requiem. If 'O fortuna' is the type of classical music you like, I think you might be more at home with film music tho'. Like Hans Zimmer or something.

This is the 3rd time I have seen somebody with the misapprehension that Carmina Burana is a Mozart piece. It was written by Carl Orff in 1936.
Do you require that it be a choral piece? Try the Mozart Requiem or the Verdi Requiem. Orff wrote a sequel to Carmina Burana called Catuli Carmina. Similar.

I don't know what planet you're from, but here on earth, Carmina Burana was composed by Carl Orff (certainly not Mozart).
Other songs:
Tchaikovsky - Symphony No. 6
Stravinsky - The Rite of Spring
Beethoven - Symphony Nos. 3 & 5

If you're looking for Carmina-like music, stay AWAY from Vivaldi. It's totally different...
Stravinsky -- Rite of Spring
Mahler - Symphony #2 or 5
Husa - Music for Prague, 1968
Shostakovich - Symphony #5, 8, or 10
maybe Bernstein's Chichester Psalms. Not quite as bombastic, but it's still very exciting

Apart from stating the obvious incredibly prominent John Williams pieces, I would recommend Fantasia in D Minor by Mozart, Enjoy.

I would have to go with Vivaldi's Four Seasons, esp pay attention to the 1st movement of Spring, 3rd movement of Summer, and 1st movement of Autumn, I think they are all very moving, and you've most likely already heard them.
