Most achingly-beautiful music


Ultimately, we listen to music to be moved, for example, to be elated, exulted, calmed or pained. Which are the 3 most affecting pieces of music do you find the most affecting?
hungryear
Mozart!!!
Clarinet Quintet, K. 581
Eine Kleine Nachtmusik
Budapest Quartet.
This is my favorite classical-( Chamber Music) LP or CD. I don't listen to very much Clasaical. If I could find more of this emotional attack of everry note, strings laying sweet weavings of rocky layers, dancing, prancing clarinet creeping, flying- soaring- over the wonderful fabric that each of the 4 strings create before me, I would seek the music out with the same passion with which the artists perform.
This is magical.
I can't stop playing this song on Hank Jones (wonderfully lyrical pianist) For My Father cd. "Pauletta"
Jesse Sykes ' " Reckless Burning" and " Oh my girl" . Try to get Vinyl. Oh my my !!
Parts of The Swan are nice . Tchaikovsky has a few snippets in his ballets as well.
So many, so many, (lots of them by Puccini like Un Bel Di,but right near the top of my list now would be The Grey Havens from Howard Shore's soundtrack to The return Of The King.
This is a great thread! So many to write down and check out!
