I love sad music


I'm talking about music that when you're feeling down will make you feel worse. I don't want uplifting or inspirational. Some of Chopin's more melancholic works can do it for me.  I don't listen to country, but George Jones singing "It's a good day for the roses" is about as sad a song as you will find. Leonard Cohen's "Alexandra leaving" is another sad song. I have everything Davis and Coltrane recorded, so I'm looking for recommendations for the most beautiful but depressing music you've ever heard. I want to hear a violin, my favorite instrument, that will bring tears to your eyes. I know this is a strange request but some of the best music comes from dark places. Thanks

Elgar's Nimrod (from Enigma Variations). Or the slow movement from Dvorak's 'American' quartet.
millercarbon...that is good. Thank you.

noromance...The Swan is truly beautiful. The cello is one of my favorite instruments. I particularly like Vivaldi's and Bach's cello concertos.  Thanks
An oldie I’ve always been partial to is”We’ll Sing in the Sunshine” by Gale Garnett.
