Has anyone come across songs that are based on, or incorporates some kind of motif or theme from a classical piece? Do share them here (:

p.s. Classical as in those pre-1900s (baroque, classical, romantic eras, etc)

One that i was listening to for a while:
Lamb's Angelica
(i really really like how they took this two bars motif from debussy's claire de lune, play it on loop and weave all sorts of stuff and it actually becomes a piece on its own)

(oh dear i'm becoming really addicted to this forum but you guys really do have many great ideas here! thanks for the many posts (:
 
well paul gilbert does alot of those.his influences were classical music really.he is one of my influences too.but immjust starting to pickup classicl music.but metal is my addiction.
