There are many but the one that really sticks out in my mind is "The Lark Ascending" by Vaughan Williams.
Barber's "Adagio for strings". "Wolf Eyes" by Paul Winter,I have played this at some important dog's funerals,yes,I'm crazy but if you have ever loved a dog I bet you'll tear up when you hear this music. "You Can't Resist It" by Lyle Lovett,if you have ever fallen in love, period. I saw Lyle and Leo Kottke play this song with just 2 acoustic guitars, it was incredible. "The Koln Concert" by Keith Jarrett. I love this thread. I haven't finished all the responses yet, but I will. It is very informative.
