The scripture below is taken from Ezekiel 28 and is an interesting aside about music. It pertains to Lucifer, his beauty, and his ability to sing. I read somewhere that he was able to sing seven-part harmony all by himself.
Yes, music in heaven must really be something.
13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
I also like the classics. There is a passage in Beethoven's Piano Concerto #5, the beginning of the second movement, that is breathtaking. Also, the beginning of the Sanctus in his Mass in C Major, makes me want to cry.
