in popular music, the song "Playin' This Song Together" from the solo album by the late Helmut Koellen-it is deeply moving for me every time

in classical music the adagio movement of Anton Bruckner's Second Symphony-it transports you into another world, the beauty of which is indescribable

But since this one is directed towards our own preferences and thus, subjectivity, i guess it's safe to say we all have our own 'beautometer.Wink
In that case I still can't choose because there's too many options. Tongue But probably the first that comes to mind is:

I would say that judging by the way the question was formulated there can be one. If it were that type of question we all dearly love (what is the most beautiful piece of music ever?), then yes. But since this one is directed towards our own preferences and thus, subjectivity, i guess it's safe to say we all have our own 'beautometer.Wink

So, the ones that immediately pop into mind are Quella Vecchia Locanda's Villa Doria Pamphili and A Forma Di, Tull's Pan Dance and Coronach, or Loudest Whisper's Overture and Septimus.

Jade Warrior .....'Wind Song".....a beautiful excerpt from Kites.

Jade Warrior....."Memories Of A Distant Sea"

Karda Estra....."The Pale Ray"..a hauntingly beautiful piece from EVE.

Well, I did nothing for you to be defensive against. As far as I knew, you never even came into the picture when I posted. I was only speaking about me and my personal thoughts on what you were talking about.
