My favorites to play:

Nocturne by Chopin (ca. 1830s)
Canon in D by Pachelbel (ca. 1680)
Sarabande by Corelli (Baroque)
Peasant's Song by Mendelssohn (1840s?)
Für Elise by Beethoven (released 1867)

Pieces I can't play, but love to hear:

Clair de Lune by Debussy (1905)
Petit Chien
Spring Song op. 62 (1840)

First thing I thought of when I read the title. I can’t play piano a lick and am really ignorant as to what technically makes a great piece of piano music, but that piece of music may be the most evocative piece of what I refer to a “gentle” music I have ever heard.

None of the adrenaline inducing grand movements. No real emotional connection to any events or persons for me yet it almost brings me to tears and I can’t really explain why. That is great music in my estimation.

Chopin - "Prelude in C Minor, Opus 28, Number 20"

Also the inspiration for a pop hit in the mid-1970s.
