Yes indeedy, that bit of "The Unanswered Question" is just... transcendent. Another moment that could knock you out of your chair from 50 miles away: Arvo Part's "Passio," where 80 minutes are spent building up one incredibly intense sound, and then the chorus breaks into an "AMEN" in a completely different world. The first time I heard it, I nearly fell on my head. It's like you've been meditating silently for an hour and a half, when all of a sudden a bomb goes off in the temple. Simple and amazing. Simply amazing.
