Do you know a long song that doesn't repeat itself and sort of tells a story through music (maybe without words)?

there is a hindi song which is sorta long (5 mins without music, 6 with) - Breathless (not really breathless, but full song done in just 16 breaths(that is roughly 3 per minute), but almost none are easily audible) - it is a romance story - meetup - love blossom - heart break - life ruined - reunion - together forever. The lyricist is one of the best hindi/urdu lyricist, maybe among the best in the world

also there are many old classical concerts (for example - beethoven) which are music only and at times were in conjunction with plays or dramas going through stories
