Renaissance borrows from Adagio in G minor for Cold as Being. Zappa was known to insert a phrase here or there in some of his works. The one that comes to mind for me is the main theme from Jupiter (Holst) being inserted into Call Any Vegetable but supposedly the Duke of Prunes has several brief quotes from Stravinsky.
Isao Tomita - Snowflakes Are Dancing (Debussy) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YeWiIQQZAo
He also did Mussorgsky: Pictures at an Exhibition, Gustav Holst: The Planets a.o.
ELP really did a lot Pictures at an Exhibition, Gustav Holst, Bartok (The Barbarian) a.o.
Wakeman did some Brahms on Fragile, and Stravinsky Firebird on Yessongs
King Crimson did Gustav Holst: Mars
The Nice Bach - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uChL6CEHhQg Sibelius https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HvuoWhTJbPA
Zappa have done snippets

Fireballet used a.o. Mousorgsky and Debussy for Night On Bald Mountain: https://www.discogs.com/release/2082...-Bald-Mountain
Manfred Mann's Earthband: Joybringer (from Holst)
Ekseption used a lot of classical compositions.
Here's an obscure one: Alice Cooper: "Alley Cats vs. the Jets" lifting a section of West Side Story.
The Enid's The Last Judgement, and Argent's The Coming Of Kohoutek are based on Dies Irae. Among many others.
Actually it was Brahms' variations on a theme by Haydn. The theme being Haydn's Wind Partita.
"Well my son, life is like a beanstalk, isn't it?"--Dalai Lama
Canarios - Ciclos
Death inspires me like a dog inspires a rabbit
The Enid also took some bits from Mahler's 2nd Symphony, I believe in the end section of their Fand piece.
Do Epica count? - to my ears they are truly Prog Metal
More from the ELP canon:
"Toccata": A.Ginastera Piano Concerto No.1 "Toccata" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hfkLobjxew
"Canario": Joaquín Rodrigo Fantasía para un gentilhombre https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnwV92IrClo (17:20 - 22:23)
"Romeo and Juliet": Prokofiev https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_hOR50u7ek
The Science Group - ... a mere coincidence
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnfiVCEcr4w
Track 14 Scale Invarians, Stravinsky Le Sacre, at half speed
Why?
That focus will exclude a lot of potentially good music.
Regards,
Duncan
I've always had a fondness for this:
What Buon Vecchio Charlie lacked in subtlety and understated good taste (everything), they more than made up for in gung-ho rockin' attitude. Personally I enjoy their lack of deference to the material.
I stand corrected. Thanks.
