All late Beethoven, but in particular:
String Quartet Opus 131 - Adagio ma non troppo e molto espressivo
Piano Sonote Opus 106 (Hammerklavier) - Adagio Sostenuto
Piano Sonote Opus 111 - Arietta: Adagio molto, semplice e cantabile

Keith Jarrett - Koln Concert Part III
Tchaikovsky 4th Symphony - Beautiful themes to his 7 symphonies and this is my favorite!
