Give this a listen NOW if you've never heard it. All 5 parts are on YouTube. Part 3 IBM 1402 Card Real Punch is just wonderful. Reminds me of something from a movie but I can't pinpoint it.
- He has done a fair bit of movie work.nb

Absolutely stunning. Been going through a few different Jóhann Jóhannsson albums today, this is new to me and it's just wonderful.

Mozart's Requiem is amazing too.
Particularly:
Requiem, KV 626 - I Introitus : Requiem
Requiem, KV 626 - II Kyrie
Requiem, KV 626 - III Sequentia : Dies irae
Requiem, KV 626 - VIII Communio

Arvo Part is great. Try to find this album:
Just amazing. The woman playing violon on this album is a Canadian musician and she's one of the few having the chance to play with a Stradivarius violin. Check it out. One of my favorite album ever.

Discovered Estonian composer Arvo Pärt this week through Spotify, and must have listened to this piece 10 times since then. It's mind-blowing; I've loved classical music all my life and this is totally at the top of what I like.

- The cinematic aspect of it is what draws me in. This could have been used in The Road at various parts. Very somber / reflective.mg33
- That's really nice Bluejam. Super emotive. That type of classical really gets to me sometimes.mg33

I listened to a variety of 'classical' types of music over the years. I came to realize that the one that I always came back to was Mozart, so that is all I listen to. And there is a lot to hear.
The problem is, and you are right to ask, and as others have pointed out, there is so much, and often very different - so Debussy is going to be way different than Gregorian Chants.
Try some of this Mozart and I promise it will make your ears happy.
Piano Concertos 17-27
Violin Concertos 1-5 (especially the slow movements, which are breathtakingly beautiful)
Any concertos are good, clarinet, basson, flute, etc.A Little Night Music
Piano Sonata #8
Mass in C (the final movements rock harder than anything you have ever heard)
Don Giovanni.....(melodies are incredible - forget the story and all that, just listen to the melodies)

It had been a wonderful evening and what I needed now, to give it the perfect ending, was a little of the Ludwig Van....
