Learning valuable life lessons through music

[Plenum]

I gain a lot of wisdom about life through music. This thread is about that, so feel free to post music you have gained a valuable kernel of wisdom from, and (most importantly) what lesson you learned. Please be detailed if possible and DO NOT just post random music you like with no explanation (there are plenty of other threads for that).

I would say that the music of Bach has served that teaching role for me.

It applies to the entire body of the work that has survived down to us; and if I had to narrow it down even further, the Well Tempered Klavier is the pinnacle of compact communications; all the time interwoven, harmonized, expressive, unfolding, and emotive.  They are like 24 paired poems that explore the expanse of Understanding.

In terms of the Life Lesson, I would say that it served as a Beacon of organized Thought.  That one can crystallize expression, and have it be totally beautiful and comprehensible at the same time.  It was basically an example of blue-ray communications, which served as a touchstone of what was true.
