Do you perhaps want to set some parameters (other than duration)? Your question is impossibly broad otherwise.

Is the theme of the concert love, peace, and joy?

If so, I'd reccomend Chopin/Liszt - Chant Polonais No. 5 'Meine Freuden' (My Joys)

Thanks. The recital is part of my church classical concerts serie

We have had lots of Chopin, Liszt, Rachmaninoff. 
This time we would like to combine music, pictures and lyrics. 
Joyful and peaceful music is what I'm looking for.  I have my own ideas, but just open for any suggestions.
