Beethoven

-9th Symphony, 3rd and 4th movements

-String quartet op.135, 3rd movement

-String quartet op.132, 3rd movement

All of those have sent me into tears at one point or another.

Almost teary eyed at the end of Die Kunst der Fuge. But never quite.

oh my!

I remember the very first time I heard this, it was a music history class, I was 17 or so, and the teacher had just told us that Bach died before he could finish this piece...

And I burst into tears at the unfinished end.

Buxtehude's Klag-lied from BuxWV 76 is a very touching piece. Buxtehude composed it for his father's funeral. I am near to cry whenever I hear it's sad melody and the wonderful harmonic background. I have only listened to Emma Kirkby's and Lars Ulrik Mortensen's recording of the song, but it's just great.
