Opera. Try the "Hebrew Slaves' Chorus" or something from Wagner's "Parsifal".... it moves me.

When I want music that touches my very soul, I put on Mozart. I swear that he is speaking to me through the ages, through his music. I have never known such perfection, and there is no other music that puts me in such a blissful state. I know exactly how you feel Jazz--that is the way I feel about Mozart.
