What do you consider to be the most beautiful piece of music?

The most beautiful? It's impossible to decide!

The Tchaikovsky's First Piano Concerto is pretty awesome though. I don't know if it's the most beautiful music I've heard but regardless, it's one of my favourites:

The theme occurs twice, in the beginning, and then you never hear it again for the whole concerto, but that's the beauty of it. Transience and independence.

Other great works:

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tenI_FyFeZ0"]YouTube- Jascha Heifetz plays Melodie by Gluck[/ame]

I could go on all day. It's impossible to decide...:m083:
 
Symphony No. 9 in D minor, Op. 125, Fourth Movement, Ludwig van Beethoven, full stop.
