I chose some of the most terrifying works I know of.

"A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people ... then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbour — such is my idea of happiness"

Tolstoy

Lisztianwagner

There's a similar poll indeed, anyway my vote goes to Schönberg's Orchesterstücke.
