This piano transcription (by the performer) of the slow movement of Rachmaninov's 2nd symphony is both revelatory and extremely moving (from the Gilmore Keyboard Festival's 2016-17 Rising Stars Series):

                  I recently found this fine take on Beethoven's Choral Fantasy with Martha Argerich, Seiji Ozawa, and the Saito Kinen Orchestra: youtube.com/watch?v=cSfMH9Y5bi8. It's worth an ear. The poor piece often gets rushed and treated like filler. Argerich and Ozawa give it depth and intensity, and the performances from the vocal soloists and members of the orchestra are outstanding. Ozawa had to step out, but Argerich still tours and gives awesome concerts.

Crumbling ruins are strewn about the shore and some stone pillars reach out of the water in the distance, but most of the ancient structures that used to be here have fallen into the sea. There's a tavern and an inn for travelers passing through and a few houses for local residents, but not much else. Though many have set out to discover what's beyond this place, magic cannot reach far enough to see if anything exists on a farther shore and any ships that set out always reach the same impassable, never-ending storm and must return. As far as anyone knows, the world ends here.
