Awe-inspiring classical pieces?
I'm a huge classical fan, and I'm looking for more songs to learn to play. I'm usually a fan of more somber songs, as I mostly listen when I'm in a comtemplative/pensive mood.
Some of my favorites are: Carmina Burana, pretty much all Beethoven, Mozart (Rex Tremendae), Toccata and Fugue, Vivaldi, etc.
I know most of the popular pieces, but feel free to put opinions, etc. The pieces I enjoy most will be rewarded with 10 points 
Alexandr Scriabin's compositions are pretty intense. His compositions as a young conservatory student were rather unoriginal (still beautiful, however--listen to his most famous work Etude #12, Op. 8, dated from this period http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ocRg-kCbPyk my favorite adaptation on YouTube, and if you like this one, check out Scriabin's other version of the piece, but you'll have to find a recording elsewhere), and they echoed influences of Chopin and Liszt. After he started to delve into Theosophy and mysticism, and playing up his synathaesia (he supposedly could hear colors), his pieces took on a more original character. Sonatas 4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbSZWTnVV-k) and 5 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0lfk2QgPhc&feature=related), the latter of which is the more well-known, are indicative of his Middle Period. They're explosive, ecstatic, and a little schizophrenic; if you get the music, it's wonderful, but you have to be a little bit mad. His Poeme de l'extase (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PTFfvkMU7c) is a great example of his orchestral prowess (try to get the full version and look up its history), as is one of his later pieces Prometheus: Poem of Fire (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2UFPH-8lNE&feature=related), the latter of which displays his reaching toward new arenas of dissonance; I see it as correlating with the mystic's journey of reaching toward dissolution. Pretty cool though.
If you like Carmina Burana and are entranced with its primal, rhythm-driven fury, how about Stravinsky's Rite of Spring? You've probably listened to it. I'm fascinated by how much Stravinsky was concerned with the craft of composition. Everything has a place. He reduced music to its bare mathematical elements, appropriate for the primitivism of pagan Russia. I prefer the stuff from his early period, like The Nightengale, Petrushka, and The Firebird.
My musical preferences, as you might be able to tell, drift toward the late nineteenth/early twentieth centuries. I love Ravel. Listen to Daphnis and Chloe, Gaspard de la nuit (especially "Ondine"), Alborada del gracioso, his piano concertos, and Le tombeau de Couperin (I just learned "Toccata" and it's awesome). For the more somber side of French music, try Poulenc. I love French music of this era because it's so remarkably emotionally distanced. It's not devoid of passion, but merely presented matter-of-factly. There's beauty in that. You'll know if you listen to the dour Poulenc. Try his clarinet sonata, double piano concerto, and church music. Listen to Faure's melodies and Requiem, too.
