Mikeam, I forget to mention Eva's exquisite rendition of Somewhere Over the Rainbow. This is the first of her songs that I heard...more than enough to hook me. As for Ella, no one has surpassed her in an overall sense...so versatile and always spot on.
Andrew Latimer's guitar paired with Peter Bardens keyboards on Camel's Flight of the Snow Goose
Beethoven .... piano sonatas, 2nd movement of 5th symphony.
Mozart requiem. Some parts of Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake are very moving.
Also, there's AC/DC "Rock & Roll Damnation" from the classic Powerage album.

One of these is a facetious answer, can you spot which one it is ? :-)
