Berlioz - Symphony Fantastique
Stravinsky - Petrouchka
Mahler - 1st Symphony
Respighi - Fountains of Rome
Strauss - Till Eulenspeigel

What Jay said. I would add only one piece, Ein Heldenleben by Strauss. Off course that would make 11, but I like the whole Spinal Tap vibe of that number. Good luck.
