Sibelius 4 (il tempo largo)

YES! A movement that, IMHO, is steeped in personal grief, self-doubt, and, perhaps, even despair. Love it.

[Keep Going]

5 favourite.

But not a top 5. 

Vaughan Williams' 5th - iii. lento, romanza
Mahler's 9th - iv. adagio
Bruckner's 7th - ii. adagio
Shostakovich's 5th - iii. largo
Rautavaara's 7th - iii. come un sogno

[Heck148]

At the moment - this does change rather frequently...

Mahler - Sym #3 - finale
Bruckner Sym #7
Beethoven - Sym #3
Sibelius - Sym #1
Tchaik - Sym #1

[Heck148]

A few hours later:

Mahler       - Sym #9  [IV]
Beethoven - Sym #4  [II]
Beethoven - Sym #2  [II]
Beethoven - Sym #6  [II]
Sibelius     - Sym #2  [II]
Mozart      - Sym #41 [II]
Mozart      - Sym #39 [II]

[vandermolen]

Oh, man this is hard Daniel! But here goes nothing...

(In no particular order)

1. Shostakovich: Violin Concerto No. 1 - Passacaglia
2. Shostakovich: Symphony No. 5 - Largo
3. Vaughan Williams: Symphony No. 5 - Romanza
4. Honegger: Symphony No. 3 "Liturgique" - De profundis clamavi
5. Myaskovsky: Symphony No. 24 - Andante Molto Sostenuto

Very much agree with this list. Coincidentally have recently been listening to Myaskovsky's 24th Symphony (Osaka SO recording) and consider it to be one of his very greatest works.
My new list:
Miaskovsky: Symphony 16
David Diamond: Symphony 3
Miaskovsky: Symphony 8
Atterberg: Symphony 8
Rootham: Symphony 1

[Wanderer]

Today:

Beethoven 3
Mahler 6 Andante
Mahler 10
Schubert 9 Andante
Elgar 1

[Autumn Leaves]

Might have posted a list before but too lazy to check - so:

Beethoven #9
Mahler #6
Shostakovich #1
Tchaikovsky #3
Brahms #4

Probably forgot something but this will do for now.

[ahinton]

Shostakovich 6 (first movement)
Mahler 9 (finale)
Bruckner 9 (especially when it's followed by the finale!)
Bruckner 7
Szymanowski 2 (theme and variations)

[SymphonicAddict]

In symphonies:
Bruckner's 7th (for me, the best slow movement ever!)
Tchaikovsky's 1st (so beautiful)
Mahler's 6th (it's so evocative)
Atterberg's 4th (it's magical) (I have not heard the 8th)
Prokofiev's 5th or Rachmaninov's 2nd

Other pieces:
Beethoven's 5th Piano concerto
Brahms' 2nd Piano concerto
Grieg's Piano concerto
Beethoven's Benedictus from Missa Solemnis
Bartók's Music for strings, percussion and celesta (III)
