Shostakovich Piano Concerto no.2, 2nd movement. Hard to get tears out of me (I'm a man) but quite close.

How about that Allan Sherman summer camp song "Hello muddah, Hello Faddah" (1990?). Can't help bursting into tears laughing each time I hear it! :lol:

hahaha, that's another way of looking at "tears". I need to lighten up-I don't have any contribution for this kind of funny.

Well, life can be funny if not so serious! :))

 

Perhaps there is pleasure in melancholy? Among many, two great masterpieces of classical music which bring tears to my eyes, if not literally, are the Finale(Adagio Lamentoso) of Tchaikovsky's 6th Symphony, aptly named the "Pathetique" by his brother postumously, and Richard Strauss' 4th song (Im Abendrot) of the "Four Last Songs". These two pieces give vent to melancholy in sublime musical content yet each with a profoundly different denouement.

 

Tchaikovsky in the Finale brings an intensely tragic musical score, ladens with regrets and sadness. The score ends with low and persistent basses fading into oblivion, in my imagery eyes, like a dry-out skeletal barren tree collapsing in a sparse landscape. Shortly after the symphony, Tchaikovsky died. There was rumour of a suicide. Was that how he felt towards the end - an oblivion without redemption?

 

The other, the 4th Song, was a beautiful song-piece with sublime orchestral accompanion. In the 1983 Philip version, the strings of Gewandhaus-Orchester Leipzig, conducted by Kurt Masur, introduce in a silky even-tempo tide for Jessye Norman, the soprano, to phase in. Her soaring voice seems to bide a resigned farewell to a life, sad, perhaps with tinges of regret, yet not without joy. Towards the ending, her voice tails off leaving the drawn-out strings and the flute to end in oblivion. The melancholy was more of a leave-taking than a resignation.

Nadia's Theme, a.k.a The Young and The Restless Soap opera theme song composed by Barry De Vorzon. Its a touching piece used in Nadia Comaneci's montage by ABC tv in 1976 when she scored the first perfect 10 ever in olympic history for gymnastics...Its so inspiring and dark and filled with tranquility and the silence at the start of the piece is so eerie.
