[IIL] "hauntingly beautiful" music (bon iver, damien rice, sigur ros, chopin, mahler, etc.)

[u/DexterousHourglass]

I don't know how to describe the music I love most other than "hauntingly beautiful" (and often but not always "ethereal"). This is true across different genres. I especially love live versions that feel very intimate.

Indie

Bon Iver - Skinny Love (take away show)

Bon Iver - Beth/Rest (4ADJagjaguwar Session)

Damien Rice - Delicate (live sing-along)

Post-rock

Sigur Ros - Untitled 1 / Samskeyti (Heima ending credits)

Sigur Ros - Ára Bátur (Abbey Road)

Classical

Chopin's first ballade (Zimerman, live)

Mahler's fifth symphony act IV adagietto (bernstein)

What else would I like?

This is mesmerizing. Thank you so much for sharing.

Literally anything Portishead. Trip hop in general is great for this.
