(This question was inspired by [“Tame Your Climate Anxiety in 2024.”]() Top Answers to Our Previous Question (On the One Piece of Music You’d Listen to for the Rest of Your Life) - “Méditation” from the opera Thaïs is the piece of music I would choose if I only had one piece to listen to. It evokes emotions that are thought provoking whether joyful or melancholy. For me, it also calms my brain as I get lost in the piece and life’s distractions fade. – Patricia O. - The final movement of Beethoveen's 9th symphony. – Eric - “Kashmir” by Led Zeppelin. I love music that gives me goosebumps, even now in my 70s. Kashmir does that. It's theatric, has poetry, aspects of classical music, great rhythm. It's a gem of great rock and roll that still has me wired and feeling alive. – Joe H. - “Gabriel’s Oboe” by Ennio Morricone. – Roz - The Emperor Concerto by Beethoven, because it is the most amazing music ever. – Jeneen B. - I seldom listen to classical music, but it seems I can listen to Pachelbel's Canon In D Major almost endlessly. There's something about it that, at a visceral level, moves me and calms me at the same time. – Alice C. - I need two: “People in Sorrow” by Art Ensemble of Chicago, and Deaf Dumb Blind by Pharoah Sanders. To me they represent the yin and the yang of life on earth, each participating in the other. – Wendy L. - Mozart’s 23rd Piano Concerto. Specifically the second movement. Sublime. – David C. - Mahler’s Symphony No. 1, because it gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it. – Juandedios S.
