Most achingly-beautiful music

I can't just make it 3:

Bach's Mass in B Minor
Bruckner Symphony #8
Prelude to Wagner's Parsifal
Sibelius Symphony #7
Berg Violin Concerto
Beethoven's Missa Solemnis
Part's Litany
Petterson's Symphony #7

Sibelius, what about your own concerto for violin? C. Ferras/Karajan, for example? Also, if M. Solemnis would you accept Brahms Deutsche Requiem? (Klemperer, maybe)
Cheers!

I first listened to the Boston Camerata's "Musee Judeo Baroque by Salaman Rossi" on this label. This was before I had an audiophile hardware budget. I wasn't even a classical music fan then you see. But the sheer beauty of the music did something to my ears. For some reason, I kept turning to this particular CD. All I can say is that "warmth, liquid mid range" etc comes from the recording and not from $2000 wires.

The Audio Critic magazine said they were in "awe" of this label and I agree. Sound quality is better than on 24/96 and even HDCD or SACD recordings - even on their old recordings. Must be superior sound engineers?

Then they started a budget label ($5.98/disk) called clasicalexpress.com

Check out their sampler for $2.98 at :

Just used my father's day gift certificate at amazon to get Barber's Adagio for Strings, etc. recommended here. While I was snooping around, I finally found a cd of Bach: Cantatas and Arias with Elisabeth Schwarzkopf. Used to have it on vinyl and had about given up! Highly recommended. Thanks, people.

Sumukh: In answer to your question about the recording engineers for HM, they have some of the best, including Peter McGrath and Tony Faulkner, but don't overlook the talents of producer Robina Young, a true talent.
