Do you have a favorite classical musician or musical piece? What is it?
Beethoven, 7th Symphony, 2nd movement. Saw the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra perform it last spring and literally sat in the audience and sobbed. So amazing!!!!!!!! It is featured in a really emotion-packed scene in "Immortal Beloved", probably one of the reasons it strikes my heart so much.

Second choice is John Rutter's Requiem. Modern composer, beautifully moving piece, especially the Kyrie.
