Songs like Palewell Park (beautiful,sophisticated)

   Palewell Park by Bruford (a very odd "song" - actually instrumental - for a band named after their drummer as there are no drums in it) is one of my favourite songs, and I regularly come back to it.
The song features a stunningly beautiful, emotional, yet sophisticated and subtle melody, played to perfection.

Here it is:

I am very keen on listening to other songs (instrumental and with voice are both welcome) that have these qualities, so please post! (Doesn't have to be prog but can be.) Drums are allowed but I'm not looking for power and energy here (at least not of the standard kind).

	Many Chick Corea, or Pat Metheny songs would apply. Here's some Jellyfish.
