This is pretty obscure. Anyone else know this recording?

BTW, I love this thread. It's a gold mine of pleasure.

Gorecki, Symphony #3

Vaughan-Williams, The Lark Ascending

any number of movements from Mahler: last movement 3rd; Adagietto 5th; slow movement 6th; large parts of 9th...

also check out R. Strauss's Death and Transfiguration

Forgot to mention:

John Dowland, Lacrimae, for consort of viols. The Fretwork version is pretty good.
