Favorite Classical song? audio neccesary

Bach's sonatas and partitas for solo violin are solid, my favorite being the chaconne.

Here's Heifetz playing it:
part 1 and part 2

not exactly my favorite recording, but i love how everyone seems to have a different interpretation of the piece.

That seems to be the only video I can find of the end of Beethoven's 9th. I think that's the end anyways. But it's not a great performance in my opinion, or a bad recording anyways, doesn't sound as strong as I think it ought to. Nevertheless, one of my favorites.

Edit: Err, about it not being as strong - I had the volume way down, lmao.

Edit 2: Am I an idiot or something? Any other recording i have of Beehtoven's 9th doesn't sound anything like this - why?

Also, Mozart's Eine Klein Nachtmusik

The Adagietto from Mahler's 5th easily wins 1st place on my list.

Also off the top of my head: Arvo Part's Spiegel im Spiegel;

David Fanshawe's Lord's Prayer;

Bellini - Casta Diva;

and the Final Movement of Sibelius' 5th.
