Roman Moroni:I would like to direct this to the distinguished members of the panel: You lousy cork-soakers. You have violated my farging rights. Dis somanumbatching country was founded so that the liberties of common patriotic citizens like me could not be taken away by a bunch of fargin iceholes... like yourselves.
Since no one has posted one by him yet, I guess it'll be my honour. Dream, by the great John Cage (the video is good too, shot by a fan of his for YouTube). Sadly, very few of his aleatory pieces (or "indeterminate" as he styled them) are available on the web.

I listened to this Enya song over and over while driving my truck. The lyrics are so inspirational and I love listening to Enya's voice. This could have been written for all of us who are struggling to make it through life.
May it be an evening star Shines down upon you May it be when darkness falls Your heart will be true You walk a lonely road Oh! How far you are from home
Darkness has come Believe and you will find your way darkness has fallen A promise lives within you now
May it be the shadows call Will fly away May it be you journey on To light the day When the night is overcome You may rise to find the sun
darkness has come Believe and you will find your way darkness has fallen A promise lives within you now
A promise lives within you now

A milonga is a genre between the payada and the tango. It's from Argentina and Uruguay, with a 2/4 tempo yet irregular. You play it in 8 beats with stress in 1, 4, 5 and 7. The hit on 7 makes it quite hard to play in the piano. I can manage a not too bad version of this one, though.
Astor Piazzolla's Milonga del Angel, for two pianos.

W. A. Mozart's Requiem, directed by Solti with the Wiener Philharmoniker and the Wiener Staatsopernchor. A very good version, although as expected the YouTube sound quality is poor. The best out there is, in my opinion, Karajan's 1973 version with the Berliner Philharmoniker and Wilma Lipp as the soprano.
Only the Introit and the Kyrie eleison are here.
I've always loved Mozart's masses, must be the Catholic background.
