Top 10 Iconic Pieces of Classical Music

They're the definition of classic. For this list, we're choosing compositions based on their quality, overall recognition and lasting impact. We're focusing on instrumental passages and/or sections, as those whose main focus are vocals will be explored in another list. We're also excluding those pieces that have become synonymous with specific ceremonies, like “Here Comes the Bride,” “Pomp and Circumstance” and the “Hallelujah” chorus. Welcome to WatchMojo.com, and today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 iconic pieces of classical music.
