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?

John Cage's In a Landscape (perhaps intellectually beautiful as opposed to achingly so). Also Barber's Adagio for Strings (as many have said) and parts (at least) of the Rutter Requiem. Also that brief passage of music the Grateful Dead played coming out of the first-ever Wharf Rat on 2/18/71, which appears on the So Many Roads boxed set as Beautiful Jam. And Ramblin' Jack Elliott's 912 Greens (the original recording).
"Where is the sixty horses in my herd? where is the "all" of my tribe? Where is the hiching post where I can tie my horse? Where are the seven "kojuun" of my homeland?" From the song "kongerei" sung by Tuvan expatriates who live in outer Mongolia and yearn for their homeland, heard on Kronos Quartet album "Night Prayers".I listened this particular song on NPR. And if you have a chance to heare it, i DARE you to stay indiferent!
