While I was playing this piece, this movement. The heartbreak is too much, especially after having played everything that came before it. I sometimes think it's hard to listen to classical music without being emotionally jaded. Hearing film music, or things that came after this (such as the Barber Adagio, which i prefer in its original form - the second movement of his string quartet )It can be hard to remember that when this piece was written, no one had heard ANYTHING like it. Listening to music with an open heart is sure to bring out all sorts of emotions.
