bartok's symphonies are extremely haunting, almost dissonant.
chopin's nocturnes are melancholy and beautiful and contain plenty of repitition. also his ballades, especially the G minor one.
perhaps you could explore some more beethoven piano sonatas... the Pathétique's middle movement is an obvious example of a powerful, slow piece, but also very uplifting, it has a hymm like quality to it. there are also less obvious ones, for example no. 27 opus 90 in e minor. it only has 2 movements and the first sounds mysterious due to an unusual time signature. the last movement is a rondo in a major key therefore contains plenty of repitition...
