Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima and St. Luke's Passion are seriously scary works. I love 'em!

Less scary but no less awe-inspiring is Messaien's Turangalila Symphonie.

If you really like the darker side, then it's hard to beat Skryabin.


On the lighter side, anything by Vivaldi rocks - even the overplayed 4 Seasons. His concerti (especially the ones for wind instruments) are awesome, and I'm particularly partial to the Gloria in D.

Perfection in harmony - J.S. Bach without the fiddly bits.
