My annual post.

Elgar: Quintet for Piano and String in A minor, Op. 84, second movement

This adagio movement in E Major was Elgar's 1919 elegy for the war dead. At 5:27 you hear inconsolable grief, all the tears in the world.

Years ago I posted an interpretation of this movement, but it's best to just let it flow over you.
