This is an incredible recording of the Adagio. Never been a huge Slatkin fan but this is something! I highly recommend listening!

Enjoy!

Here is another version of Barber's Adagio , this time it is an English brass band - very well done.

If you really like the Adagio, then I'd highly recommend listening to Agnus Dei if you have not already. It's Adagio set (by Barber) for an eight-part choir. It's really amazing. You can find it on YouTube.
