Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied - Bach (mp4)
Mottetto. BWV 225. Pure joy and I urge you to put the headphones on and escape for 12 minutes. Note the use of soprano, alto and tenor clefs for pitching middle C on the stave, so useful for the clarity and relative simplicity in the score and pitching many vocal parts across a wide range. Sadly we don't use these clefs much in vocal music today.

Mass in B minor - J.S. Bach (mp4)
How such music is created by a human being is beyond me. Note the volume levels when listening to Bach - turn it down a notch or two! Try and listen to ALL the vocal parts (SATB).

Overture to Tannhauser - Wagner (mp4)
Organ arrangement performed and arranged by the brilliant Nathan Laube. I can't even begin to explain how complex this is to perform. Brilliant!

From the Bavarian Highlands Op. 27 - Edward Elgar (mp4)
This is another neglected work by Elgar which also comes into the 'great' category. Hard to believe that Elgar was a self-taught composer.
