Bach's Brandenburg concertos are pretty sublime, love the harpsichord solo.
The harp isn't your typical jazz instrument, until Dorothy Ashby came along.
In french prog rock Magma can feel too intense for me, this track is a little softer from Magma's former bassist.

First discovered the beauty of fado music from Wim Wenders' "Lisbon Story", a mostly forgettable movie but the soundtrack stuck with me.
As someone who grew up on gangsta rap, the concept of space in music was anathema to me, thankfully Monsieur Davis showed me the way.
Need to grow facial hair super fast? Listen to this.

Hector Berlioz, my favourite French composer I always thought was Russian
Carlo Gesualdo murdered his wife and her lover, it's believed he felt immense guilt for the rest of his days, reflected in his madrigals.
European folk music with a twist. After Emma Myldenberger split up the members formed Radio Noisz Ensemble and split up again.

"Black Saint and the Sinner Lady" was unlike anything I'd ever heard before, such organised chaos could only be made in a studio.
The Soviet Union gave us some good classical composers.
Who doesn't love dark classical music?

Mulatu Atstatke combined Western and Ethiopian music to create a whole new genre: Ethio-jazz
Brazilian pop music offers more than bossa nova
The quintessential weird rock music, listen at your peril....
