Essential Classical - Pt. 5: Pretentiousness and the last of this

This is it. Here are the miscellaneous pieces left over worth mentioning. Now it's up to you to go hunt down some more classical music you like. I'll give you a hint: Chopin's piano works are insanely good.

1) Vivaldi - Spring
You oughta know this one by now. And just to cover all the seasons, this is Autumn.

2) Bach - Cello Suite No. 1
Yo, Yo-Yo.

3) Bach - Jesu, Joy of a Man's Desiring
Sorta pompous, but check out #4.

4) Boccherini - Minuet from String Quartet in E Major
Sooooo pretentious.

5) Handel - Hallelujah Chorus
As you might have guessed, all those familiar tunes had to have started somewhere. This one just happens to go way back.

6) Tchaikovsky - Dance of the Reeds
If I'm not mistaken, Angela from the office plays this at one of The Office holiday parties.

7) Mozart - Eine Kleine Nachtmusik
First time I heard this piece was when David Copperfield escaped from a building being demolished. And hey, it's Mars too!

8) Bach - Bouree in e minor
Since it's so rad on strings, Tenacious D and Jethro Tull caught on and replicated.

9) Rimsky-Korsakov - Flight of the Bumblebee
The piece to destroy a violinist with. Sweet trumpet version used in Kill Bill.

10) Mozart - Queen of the Night
The song to destroy a soprano with. You miss one of those notes and your career is effed.

11) Tchaikovsky - Trepak
I think it was featured in Home Alone, or really any other Christmas-themed movie...

12) Rossini - Barber of Seville Overture
I hope this is familiar to you, cause it means you watched the Looney Tunes feature that was voted one of the greatest cartoons ever.

13) Offenbach - Infernal Gallop
No need to say more. See it in Moulin Rouge.

14) Beethoven - Pathetique Sonata (1st and 3rd movements)
A snippet of the 1st movement was played in the Seinfeld episode about the Pez dispenser.

15 and 16) Beethoven - 5th and 9th symphonies
Everyone knows Beethoven's 5th, and the 9th gave you the "Ode to Joy". Sup, Die Hard.
