Harmonium, Quella Vecchia Locanda, Celeste, Opus 5

Good evening people

Well, the one I know from your list (and I love it) is Harmonium's, so that's the only one I can take into account.

First, Have you not heard Mike Oldfield yet? in that case, you should check out his 70's output ASAP... and also his latest one, "Return of Ommadawn" (a return to form of sorts). Though in many of his pieces he actually mixes some very soft dreamy music with some rather wilder (and even heavier) parts... but still it is mostly soft and beautiful.

Since "Snow Goose" was recommended, that brings me to mind Anthony Phillips "The Geese and the Ghost", which you might do well to check out. And the new guys "Iamthemorning" are really great too.

Afenginn "Opus"

One of my favorites is Ragnarok from 1976.. Truly a beautiful recording. So inspiring.. Celeste has always been one of my favorites, and in fact your whole list I'm a big fan of. 
I'm a HUGE Anthony Phillips fan, and I own (just about) everything he's ever released (I own over 22 of his albums!!), Seventh Heaven is extremely classically-based and simply beautiful. Soiree is a solo piano album from Phillips, and it also evokes a strong sense of self-discovery and beauty.

Bla Vardag by Atlas may be for you, as well. I'm very lucky to own that album. It flows very romantically, though it may not be completely classical. Certainly extended compositions. 

Most Marcos Valle stuff (from Brazil) is light and airy, though it's rooted more in funk-and-rock. Don't be deterred though, Previsao Do Tempo and Vento Sul are hypnotic. Not classical, really. But I have to recommend the band, it's simply magical. 

Milton Nascimento's self-titled album from 1969 is layered by string, accompanied by Som Imaginario, and Milton's sultry voice. Very slow, very brilliant.

I don't own the album, (I sure wish I did though), Pekka Pohjola's Sinfonia No. 1 is rooted in symphony. Which is quite unlike other Pekka albums, standing alone. An experiment from Pekka that really worked out.. Okay that should be enough recommendations

Indeed Renaissance and Scheherazade are great. Perhaps you would like to check out Live at Carnegie Hall, that one's got my very favourite songs from the band, and I like those versions slightly better than the originals. Another one I just remembered, the song "Catch the Rainbow", by the band Rainbow; the version from On Stage is particularly wonderful.
