    There are sooo many songs and pieces (across genres) that move me... But I'll share something I came across this morning ... I was reading something about it being the 20th anniversary of Pride & Prejudice film version that has the soundtrack performed by pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet, so I went looking for it. I had forgotten how beautiful the opening piece is. I'm going to track down the score and add it to my list of pieces to play

    @ShiroKuro I have the piano solo book from the movie, available from Hal Leonard. I used to play these all the time. So pretty

      @AndyD and @wtg now you're making me want to watch the film again!

      @wtg I haven't seen any of the other versions. I would especially like to see the 1995 series, since IIRC that one is pretty well regarded.

      @rustyfingers I just requested the score book through our music library! I suspect Dawn is harder than it sounds (I think it has polyrhythms?) but I'm thinking it should be within the realm of playability for me.

        I think it will be right up your alley.

              Parts of Così fan tutte although I can't name them. I'd have to listen and take notes first. Lol.

              I recommend Sir John Elliott Gardner's live recording but you have a hundred at your disposal.

                I thought more people would mention achy Breaky heart in this thread.

                  Apart from so much of the classical genre that moves me, a few more contemporary artists that move(d) me are Passenger, Adele, John Grant, Marianne Faithful. And more.

                    @Bernard I like Adele too, a lot! And lots of other popular artists.... There are some Japanese "pop" songs that have wonderful lyrics, songs I remember from when I first moved to Japan.... those are awfully nostalgic for me 🙂
