These are some recommendations of music that I find emotional, or powerful, or both.Bruckner - Symphony #9 (Many folk find #8 his greatest, I find it tooo lomg.)
Mahler Synphony #6. Most all of Mahler fits your requirement, both emotional and powerful. Most highly recommended and it can become addictive!
Shostakovich Sym #5. Grim (emotional) and powerful.
Faure - Requiem in original version by Herreweghe, or in his next recording with slightly expanded forces and an accompaning Symphony in B minor by Frank, both in excellent performances. These recordings of the Faure requiems are the finest I've heard. The are very intimate.
Sibelius Sym #4. #2 is more popular, upbeat and beautiful, but I've never tired of #4.
Rachmaninoff - Symphonic Dances. Powerful - great demo stuff like Mussorgsky, but very different.
Rachmaninoff - Symphony #2 - the ultimate romantic, big symphony.R Strauss - Death and Transfiguration
R Strauss - Alpine SymphonyElgar Cello Concerto - reminds me of Barber Adagio, mood wise.
Hope that helps a bit.
