The aforementioned Ravel's ballet is the classic single movement masterpiece (at least IMO, aware of other criticisms) Bolero. It was also used in 10(1979), although in a very obvious manner.

I like Bolero, but I (as well as Ravel himself apparently) sometimes get annoyed when it seems to be the only thing people recognize from Ravel's work. In fact, the rest of his work is actually quite different from Bolero in style. For example, this piano piece is more along the lines of most of his work:

AKA the "impressionist" period in western classical. Ravel, Debussy...anyone else a fan of them?
