I asked Bp. Williamson one day in seminary, "My Lord, you are on a desert island and you only get to pick one piece of music." I think he picked a Mozart piece, to which I replied, "You break my heart by not choosing Beethoven's Ninth."

And he said, "How about you Mr. Shepherd?" "Well, my Lord, do I get to pick between Bethoven's Ninth and Pink Floyd The Wall?"

This isn't even classical music, from this clip the movie seems to be mocking nuns by portraying them as boring or old fashioned because they are hesitant to participate in this jazzy blues dance style music, that type of music never belongs in a church. I wish i could downvote but i can't.

This one's unique and really good in my opinion. I think the composer was Catholic.

From what i've seen in this thread we have very similar music taste. I love baroque organ music.

Here's one of my favourites from Bach:
