I love Schubert's piano sonatas, and his song cycles like this version of Winterreise

Chopin's ok... Dark though? It's salon music (not that there's anything wrong with that).
If you DO want dark, look into penderecki, sibelius, janacek, pettersson, mahler, gorecki..
It's hard to recommend anything without knowing your tastes, but regardless, start with bach and beethoven.
Some decent blogs:

I recently revisited the famous Bach Cello Suites and am really enjoying them. I picked up the version performed by Jian Wang for many reasons related to recording quality and style. I do recommend it.
