This ends up being different than your favorite piece.

For example, the piece that enduces the most emotion for me is Ravel's Bolero.
I could be having the worst day or the best day, but I will just sit there, awestruck, at the majesty of this piece.

Of course, mentally, I am picturing the camels all marching by at the beat like so many cartoons of old pictured it for us;)

Left..right..left..right...pause and salute the king...left..right...;)

Most emotional: Samuel Barber's Adagio for Springs and a choral variation of that piece called Agnus Dei by Robert Shaw.
