	To move a little away from the best/worst music, etc. I would like
to hear from people about the classical pieces that reallly "get ya right there".
The music that either inspires you to great heights, or reduces you to sobs.
After all, that is what our favorite music is all about; emotion. 

	For example, Mozart's requiem (even though it's been termed 'top 40')
is extremely effective in both ways. But I think this is an exception. Let me
hear recommendations for either or both categories.

	First vote (after the requiem) goes for Albinoni's (sp?) Adagio in G.
(I swear I liked it BEFORE it was the soundtrack for Gallipoli). A truly
moving selection, a four klennex affair.

	Mail, post, or whatever your selections to me and I will summarize
those that are not posted.
