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?
Just about every single classical music piece can qualify - it just takes a bit of a commitment on our part to come to appreciate it. Since we all have nice systems I am sure, why not try to branch out and appreciate all sorts of music?
Poets and psychologists have pondered the question "why we respond to beauty with tears..." without arriving at a final solution, except to wonder if it is becuase it reminds us of the rest of the times in our lives, that are not filled with constant beauty and happiness... making the satisfying listening moments that much more precious.
