Othr than that, I'm pretty prosaic - Beethoven's 9th, Handel's Watermusic, and Gerschwin's Rhapsody in Blue.

Having been a Zappa fan since the late '60's, I'm gratified to see him getting recognition. It's too bad that he's not here to enjoy it; I think that Franks reputation as a serious musician will continue to grow. Of course, anyone who could write lyrics like "Watch out where the Huskies go, don't you eat that yellow snow..." kinda makes him someone I would admire anyway.
