I like all sorts, from very early up to some contemporary, assuming we're not talking about the more closely defined "classical period". As an ex-timpanist/percussionist, I like music that features these instruments and complex time signatures to best advantage, e.g. "Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra", Stravinksy's "Rite of Spring".
I also have a penchant for beautiful brass, e.g. the Nocturne in Mendelssohn's Midsummer Night's Dream Suite, "The Trumpet Shall Sound" from Handel's Messiah, and THAT bit in Sibelius's 5th Symphony.
Oboe also does it for me, e.g. the slow bit in Rossini's "William Tell Overture", oh, and yes, the various cello concerti (Elgar's, Dvorak's, Rachmaninov's) or "The Swan" in Saint-Saens' "Carnival of Animals".
I also love Berlioz's "Symphonie Fantastique", especially the "March to the Scaffold" - which was used as the theme tune for BBC TV's "Rugby Special" for a a few seasons back in the late 1960s. I would have had it as our wedding march, but might not have looked too good in the order of service!
