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?
OK, herewith my contributions from the Baroque catalog:
From the 2-CD album of the complete Albinoni Concertos, Opus 9, with Christopher Hogwood (Decca 289 458 129-2), the following movements:
a) Concerto No. 2 in D minor - Adagio - Track 5 CD 1 b) Concerto No. 11 in B flat minor - Allegro - Track 13 CD 2
And from Frederic Chopin, as interpreted by Arthur Rubenstein in a 2 CD set on EMI Classics (1992), the Nocturne in C sharp minor, possibly the most symmetrically beautiful of Chopin's creations.
