These famous works come to my mind when these composers are mentioned: Mendelssohn - Italian Symphony, Scottish Symphony, Overture to Midsummer Night's Dream, Fingal's Cave, violin concerto Schubert - Unfinished Symphony (second most famous is his Great C major symphony) Brahms - Symphony no. 1 (second most famous is his Symphony no. 3) My favorite of his compositions is his concerto for violin and cello. Schumann - piano concerto Dvořák - second most famous symphony is Symphony no. 8 Saint-Saëns - a famous short piece is his Bacchanale from Samson and Delilah Rimsky-Korsakov: Scheherezade Chopin: a few of his short pieces have earned nicknames, such as the Minute Waltz and the Raindrop Prelude. Mussorgsky: Pictures in an Exhibition, as orchestrated by Ravel
