Curiously, only classical music can do this to me... Here's one of my favourites tho there are many more.

from "Alexander Nevsky"- ["field of the dead"]

a war widow wanders the field of the dead after a terrible battle, searching for her betrothed.

Well, not too sure if this qualifies, but do play an ""ODD"" instrument called a hang. very different from whats out there... This is a very old vid! haha, was made up on the spot... Went viral for a short while, and never really updated account, hence its age, but you may or may not like

^^^ that sounds both "new-age" and "national geographic" at the same time! you say you play that? that's talent

The hang drum has a very pleasant sound.
I could listen to that for hours.

Thank you yes i do, that was me in vid, i find it therapeutic and will often play when stressed, as i find it does help somewhat when i dont feel so great... That vid i had only been playing for a few months and was the morning of my second live performance infront of 10k people, did 2 that day, lets just say for that reason i dont do live anymore! haha, was a little too much for me to handle, all this before i was told by 3 people, Councillor/psychiatrist and psychologist i am more than likely on the spectrum... Its Called a ""Hang Pan"", . First made in Berne in Switzerland around year 2000, it looks simple, but the research that went into it is phenomenal! there are actually three different tone fields coming from each note and hey have now stopped making them of this kind, the one i have is first generation, so even more of a rarity, and i would never sell it... I should do some more updated vids... maybe i will again at some point, i still get emails for a CD, just need the energy and motivation to do it

Also all the graphics including my avatar, i do myself also... but the Hang is definitely my prozac, so to speak

I'm trying to become a musician, wish me luck.

Best of luck, if you have the focus you will be fine, had never really played another instrument before this, and certainly not percussion! just have a hard time when i get a certain tune in my head now, to divert away from it! haha

^^^thank you right now I am infatuated with the old luiz bonfa tune "manha de carnaval" and am learning how to play a drastically simplified accompaniment version on classical guitar.
