What do you find more beautiful: a perfect note or a perfect symphony ?

Question

I feel that each can bring a tear to my eye and depending on the skill of the musician each could be an effortless creation by the gifted few.

Answer 1

A symphony being a musical composition is more beautiful to me.

Answer 2

An isolated note is like  a word in a poem.

All notes are perfect and complete by themselves, but it is the flow of notes, the one before that sets up the next note and gives the effect we appreciate.
