It's two minutes of stormy, blustery, awesome.
What's yours? (embedded audio, or link to audio would be great to hear the song)

I find it flirts with my soul and opens my mind.

I also really like the Cupid Variation from Paquita. Here's a guy from the Trokaderoes performing it.

And my favorite. I can't wait until my oldest daughter is ready to do this choreography, which her school uses:

It's evocative of pure timeless beauty, but also an elegaic remembrance of a lost world. Very simple, but somehow piercing and moving too.

There's something pure and wonderful about solo Bach. I particularly like the partitas for piano and also the sonatas and partitas for violin. This comes from my love of playing them. They involve great technique to play well and have such a complete sound. If you want to listen to something flashier this may not be for you but the second video of Glenn Gould playing is amazing! Much of my enjoyment of classical music pieces is from specific recordings so all YouTube videos posted are of older GREAT famous musicians and not random recordings.
For piano, I like the first partition in b flat. I really like the Praeludium:

The performances by Glenn Gould are enchanting. I love listening to him hum along. Here's a great video recording of him playing but not my favorite partita, Ouverture from Partita No.4:

I had to do another edit to add this. Bach's famous Chaconne - the last movement of the d minor partita for violin. Here's an Aaron Rosand recording. This isn't the best recording for sound quality but he's amazing and I've heard him play it live!

The recording of the Elgar Cello Concerto by Jacqueline Du Pré is incredible. Here's a link to the first movement:

I also love the Sibelius Violin Concerto. Here's a link to an old recording by David Oistrakh.

There are so many great composers... this doesn't even touch on any of the chamber music I love but it seems like time to stop posting more and more things :-)

I love Vivaldi's "Four Seasons." Absolutely gorgeous.
"Moonlight Sonata" is great when you feel like lamenting or perhaps brooding over a particularly serious thought.
And of course, the Nutcracker Suite during Christmas. Good times....
