Stravinsky is on it, but Tchaikovsky, Mussorgsky, Rimsky-Korsokoff, Borodin, are not?? This is crazy! (As a Finn, I'll put in a vote for Sibelius, too).

I LOVE Borodin! The Complete Polovetzian Dances with vocals, in Russian, is sublime.

Also the string quartet that was morphed into “This Is My Beloved” in Kismet is a favorite of mine.

With all the posters suggesting that Stravinsky be bumped in favor of many others, it should be said that Stravinsky is very good. But top 10? I like his Rite of Spring. Disney did a good job with it.
