I don't generally enjoy Mozart, but his Requiem is incredible.
"Salvation is Created" is a choral piece by Pavel Tchesnokov, mindblowingly beautiful, especially with a good section of deep Russian basses.
Many Renaissance masses and motets also, Josquin and Palestrina especially.
I am almost grateful these aren't usually performed in services--I won't speak of Bach, since it is almost worth pretending to have found faith just to sing in the church choir.
It's too bad VOIP isn't reliably good enough for us to arrange our own choir.
