Schubert's Quintet in C, D.956
At the moment the second movement, Adagio.
For those who have seen the movie, Conspiracy, this is the piece Reinhard Heidrich sees at Wansee after concluding the conference. This blood dripped violin playing murderer (son of a composer / music teacher who wrote an opera) sighs and says,
"The adagio will tear your heart out."
After a he leaves his sidekick, Adolf Eichmann puts that movement on the record player, looks at one of his assistants, and asks, "Well, does it tear your heart out?"
The man smiles and says, "Oh yes sir. Very beautiful."
Eichmann shakes his head. "I've never understood what anyone sees in Schubert's romantic Viennese shit!"
Anyhow, I like it.

Louis Jordan, "Choo-choo ch-boogie."
Jazz, more or less -- boogie-woogie if you want to be rigorous. This particular style of music was critical in the formation of both rock and roll and bee-bop, from which latter we get hard bop and cool jazz. I defy anyone to listen to it and not tap their feet.
