Do make the effort to chase down the Anne Akiko Meyers / Mendelssohn CD. Just put a search on eBay and it will turn up fairly soon. It is well worth your time and trouble and a keeper for life.

Oh yea, Jeff Buckley, what a loss. Too bad someone wasn't around to yank him out of that river...a voice of operatic scope in the rock idiom.
"Nessun Dorma"; Pavarotti of course, but almost any version will bring tears.
"Siegfried's Funeral March", preferably Soti, but as above.
Side 2 of "The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle.
