There are a lot that come immediately to mind. A few of them are:
Bill Evans - Waltz for Debby
Johnny Hodges - Just a Memory
Vladimir Horowitz - Chopin Ballade No. 1 in G Minor
John Coltrane - You Don't Know What Love Is
Oscar Peterson - Tenderly
Bill Evans - Peace Piece
Ben Webster - Willow Weep For Me
Piano and saxophone instrumentals can move me like nothing else.
Daniel Barenboim performing Chopin's Nocturne No. 7 in C Sharp Minor, Op. 27, No. 1
Glenn Gould performing Liszt's transcritption of the 2nd movement of Beethoven's 6th Symphony.
Faure's Pavane - Charles Dutoit's Choral version or Marriner's orchestral version.
"Atmospheres" by Ligeti Hear and see it on Ytube. YouTube - GYORGY LIGETI - ATMOSPHERES
"Poème électronique" by Varese
"Deams" by John Cage
"Tubular Bells" by Oldfield
"Violin Concerto" Op 47 by Schoenberg (this is a pretty good guess--my album is at work).
"Nights In White Satin" (full-length version, 7:38)- The Moody Blues from Days Of Future Passed. The combination of Mike Pinder's Mellotron and the strings in the London Fesival Orchestra (well mixed) along with Mike Minder's ending poem afterwards that nicely blend with it have a tendency to get to me a bit.
