Song Uno (Classical / jazz version for DBists)

Okay then, this game's in the bass guitar forum and contains pages and pages of posts of modern songs. I was wondering if it was possible to do a classical / jazz version of the game.

Song Uno Rules:

1. Using the previous music title, post another music title using one or more words from that title.

2. Include the name of the composer.

3. If by chance 2 people post different titles at the same time, the earliest title continues the game.

4. No playing off your own title (only post one title at a time).

5. Try to steer clear of using words like, THE, OF, IF, AND, and common classical generic titles such as ALLEGRO, LARGO, SYMPHONY, SONATA, etc. as the main word being played. Although they can be used as bonus words they shouldn't be used as the main word played.

6. For clarity purposes, write the word being played in bold (control B) or in CAPITALS.

7. Try not to post the same song more than once, or at least not on the same page.

8. Use music that has been recorded only. For example, do not use originals that no one has ever heard of that your local band has played.

Here's a classical one to start it off, feel free to add jazz titles:

New World Symphony - Dvorak
