Classical music being used widely, not just music from the early/mid classical period. Um... this is merely from the stuff I play, not from stuff that I listen to.
Berceuse from Dolly suite by Gabriel Fauré. A cute, oriental-sounding duet tune in E/C/E major. The main part uses tonics and dominant sevenths, and progresses simply to a bridge and back.
Jesu, Joy Of Man's Desiring. A grade 5 standard piece, this uses a simple triplet 3/4 melody to good effect. A bass part which consists of a note per beat, and a continuing pulse which stays throughout. Some people may notice the introduction of Lady Lynda by The Beach Boys uses the introduction of this tune.
Stephen Heller's study in Bb Major. This using minor sixths and augmented fourths to good effect and has a good compound beat.
Beethoven's Fur Elise (Albumblatt).
Do I have to profile this one? I don't think I do.
Mozart's Rondo Alla Turka. One that I can't yet play, but am looking forward to trying in the future. One of my favourite listenable tunes, with a recognizable opening, bridge, and second half. I love it.
That should do for now.

Mussorgski: Night on the Bare Mountain
Khatchachurian: Sword Dance
I suppose I have to have the 1812 overture by Tchaikovsky
Mozart: Minute Waltz (or maybe the Horn Concerto)
Beethoven's 9th symphony

Oh, and can I add Fingel's Cave by Mendelssohn
