I'll split my quick, haphazard list roughly into genres classical: J.S. Bach- Concerto for Two Violins, mvt 2: Adagio L.V. Beethoven- Piano Concerto no. 5, "Emperor", mvt. 2 F. Chopin- Nocturne in B minor, op. 62 no. 1 F. Chopin- Polonaise Fantasie, op. 61 the very end of Mahler's 2nd symphony (the whole symphony is amazing, but the ending is really something else) -- scored for a full orchestra, plus a full chorus, plus a pipe organ. a cappella choral arrangement of the famousBarber's Adagio for Strings there's obviously a ton more, especially from the romantic era, but those are just some of my all-time favorites. jazz: John Coltrane- After the Rain Herbie Hancock- Alone and I Art Blakey- Sleep On Sleeping Dancer Bill Evans- My Foolish Heart Keith Jarrett's unique and refreshing take on Somewhere Over the Rainbow Acoustic/Folk Simon and Garfunkel- Scarborough Fair Kings of Convenience- I Don't Know What I Can Save You From the solo guitar workings of Antoine Dufour- Catching the Light John Petrucci and Jordan Rudess- State of Grace from the live album that they recorded together Transatlantic- Bridge Across Forever (technically this would fall under prog as well, but it's instrumentation is acoustic by nature. Damien Rice- Delicate Ray LaMontagne- Trouble rock and prog: Porcupine Tree- Heartattack in a Lay-By Queen- You Take My Breath Away the amazing narrative of Dire Straits- Telegraph Road Dream Theater- Hell's Kitchen Matthew Good Band- I, The Throw Away Grace Potter and the Nocturnals- Big White Gate The Reign of Kindo- The Moments In Between U2- Kite Switchfoot- The Shadow Proves the Sunsine Post-Rock: This Will Destroy You- Threads Caspian- ASA The Album Leaf- Shine and just about everything else from those three, plus Explosions..., Sigur Ros, Mogwai, etc... ??? Pat Metheny- Last Train Home Ozric Tentacles- Stretchy Hans Zimmer- Time a deeply moving track from the Inception soundtrack. a track originally by Jerry Goodman, adapted to become a drumming showcase by Todd Sucherman- Tears of Joy Taylor Swift- Mine ...wait, were we talking about beautiful music, or beautiful musicians? show off! if i had a couple weeks free....adagio for strings is lush though Especially that version because there are no strings. Its all vocals and nothing short of amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good,bad,andrush Posted May 12, 2011 Author Share Posted May 12, 2011 Tel, since you're responding to eveyones posts, I really want your feedback on the acoustic version of Genesis' The Cinema Show. I can't post a link because I am typing from an iPad and I only have the mobile version of YouTube. But just search Genesis The Cinema Show Acoustic and it should come out. It is a piano/vocal only version. And please post a link so others can see too...thanks a lot in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fledgehog Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Rachmaninoff's Vespers (All-Night Vigil), written for unaccompanied chorus, are an interesting joining of religious texts and music with the kind of musical and harmonic structures characteristic of the romantic period and early 20th century. They are absolutely breathtaking -- there are lots of chords that you're not used to hearing from a chorus. and Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good call. That whole series (Alchemy Index) is awesome. Digital Seas, Lost Continent, and Digging My Own Grave are stunning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invisibleairwaves Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 QUOTE (fledgehog @ May 7 2011, 11:27 PM) Hans Zimmer- Time a deeply moving track from the Inception soundtrack. I love it when a film score can stand on its own as a powerful piece of music, even without the visuals. This is a perfect example of that. Hans Zimmer is a freaking genius.
