If you remember news shows from the 50s and 60s they'd use a military-like bass horns track over a teletype machine track. The music was definitely a derivative of Mars, the Bringer of War. BTW, the Huntley-Brinkley Report (NBC) used the 2nd movement of Beethoven's 9th
Beethoven’s 7th.
Such beauty
Gustav Holst - Mars, the Bringer of War
Nice! Have this one been featured in a movie?
The Song Remains the Same film by Led Zeppelin. The bowing section of Dazed and Confused owes a lot to Holst's "Mars."
This is something that I grew up watching with my father
Yep Star Wars, Gladiator and Bowie's The Man Who Fell To Earth (other smaller films too) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jmk5frp6-3Q

Stravinsky “The Rite of Spring”
Great pick
Orff's Carmina Burana has always seemed to me to be heavy metal before heavy metal existed. Raw energy emerging.
No disrespect to Motorhead or Black Sabbath.
See also Paganini's 24 Caprices
thanks!
That was my choice. I put it on and crank it up.
Also Sprach Zarathustra.
Wagner - Ride of the Valkyries
Thanks
Dvorak - New World Symphony
My fave
Johann Sebastian Bach - 6 Brandenburgische Konzerte.
Love seeing this one mentioned!
Ralph Vaughan Williams - “Lark Ascending”
https://youtu.be/ZR2JlDnT2l8?si=x5ulXWQVz_zOGgzn
Yes!

Barber’s Adagio for Strings
Rachmaninoff’s Vocalise
Thank you, is this basically the original "Adagio for Strings" ?
yeah, composed by Samuel Barber
Stravinsky “The Rite of Spring”
Tchaikovsky Sixth Symphony. Pathétique final movement is a tear jerker
Thank you
4th and final choice: a tie between two pieces by Borodin: “Polovtsian Dances” and “In the Steppes of Central Asia”
Thanks
Arvo Part (Estonia) “Fratres”
Thank you all for these choices.
I have always liked Johann Pachelbel’s Canon in D Major.
Gustav Holst - Jupiter
Erik Satie - Gnossiene No1
Puccini - Nessun Dorma from Turandot and Un Bel Di Vedremo from Madame Butterfly.
Perfect
