Most achingly-beautiful music

Hello! New member here. I have been cruising the forums here the past few weeks and finally registered this evening. Back on topic! I have been playing with my home stereo more often lately and I have always been partial to Pop Music and things like that, never a huge fan of Classical although I do enjoy it. Well, last night I listened to some Beethoven and it sounded great through my crappy 189$ pair of Sony floor standing speakers. My choice for most achingly-beautiful music would have to be the following:

Imogen Heap - Hide and Seek
Jack Johnson - Adrift
Live - Lightning Crashes
Kenna - Hell Bent
Sigur Rós - All of their albums

Anyone else with taste like my own?

Soundtrack from "The Last Samurai" Very beautiful. Another great one from Hans Zimmer.

Ennio Morricone's "The Mission" soundtrack. Yo Yo Ma also did a nice interpretation of the main track "Gabriel's Falls."
