Spem in Alium by Thomas Talis. It’s hauntingly beautiful

Beethoven’s Große Fuge is often ignored. It almost sounds like it could have been written by Stravinsky, Scriabin, Schoenberg 100 years after it was actually published

John Tavener’s “The Lamb” is my favorite piece of atonal music, a musical interpretation of a William Blake Poem. It combines tonality and atonality well, playing on the contrast between them to build tension and later a more satisfying resolution

I find many people haven’t heard of the film “Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters” which is surprising because it was produced by George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola. Phillip Glass wrote the soundtrack, which portrays Mishima’s life.
