Antonio Vivaldi: Concerto Grosso Op. 3, #8 in a-minor
Bach so loved it he transcribed it for organ...and in a dark room with the sub-woofer turned up and a glass of wine the sound goes right through you! 
If we are talking classical, I can't find anything that tops Ravel's "Bolero."
I also really love Bach's Brandenburg concertos. They rock the harpsichord like no other! One of my favorites in modern alternative is The Album Leaf. Most of their stuff is instrumental.

--- We have lingered in the chambers of the sea | By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown | Till human voices wake us, and we drown. — T.S. Eliot "... man always has to decide for himself in the darkness, that he must want beyond what he knows. ..." — Simone de Beauvoir "As if that blind rage had washed me clean, rid me of hope; for the first time, in that night alive with signs and stars, I opened myself to the gentle indifference of the world. Finding it so much like myself—so like a brother, really—I felt that I had been happy and that I was happy again." — Albert Camus, "The Stranger" ---

One of my favorite Mogwai songs:
I rarely get out to concerts, but I saw them play a club in Nashville in 2006 and it was a euphoric experience I'll never forget. Godspeed You Black Emperor!: East Hastings

And if you count vocals without words (IOW: Just harmonizing) then all but one of their songs is instrumental really. Speaking of electronica, I've been exploring a lot of interesting music off and on with the Raster Noton label (Ryoji Ikeda, Alva Noto, Kangding Ray, Pixel). I'm fond of some Boards of Canada and Autechre also.

Another great Mogwai song:
Turn this up and just drown in it. Their shows are just one big orgasm. Another Mogwai classic:
