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?

Solveig's Song on The Very Best of Lucia Popp (EMI Classics double CD). Whenever I play that for someone they are quiet for a few moments before saying that it was one of the most beautiful pieces of music they ever heard. Popp to me has hands down the most beautiful voice of any Soprano on record, and these 2 CD's should be in the collection of everyone who loves the female voice.
