Classical music and folk songs seem to show up an awful lot as Background Music. Sometimes it conveys culture or time period. Sometimes they just sound cool or appropriate. Sometimes the answer lies in legalities. There's just less red tape in the public domain. Music in the public domain has no need to license the melody or a Suspiciously Similar Song. There has also been an emergence of free music, some of which even has a free license for commercial use. See the Sub Tropes: Amazing Freaking Grace and Chaos of the Bells. For those pieces with well-entrenched meanings, see Standard Snippet. Rock Me, Amadeus! is a related trope where classical music (public domain or otherwise) gets sampled or remixed. For music that is copyrighted but still used in a work it didn't originate from, see Recycled Soundtrack or Real Song Theme Tune. |

One of the only two songs featured in the entirety of Portrait of a Lady on Fire is the third movement of "Summer" from Vivaldi's Four Seasons (which would have only been a little less than a century old at the time). It's featured in two scenes- the first being when Marianne plays a bit of it for Héloïse on the harpsichord, the second being the ending scene, where Marianne witnesses Héloïse being overcome with emotion while experiencing it being played by a full orchestra. | |

The radio series The Green Hornet used Rimsky-Korsakov's "The Flight of the Bumblebee" for its opening theme, and a number of classical works as regular soundtrack bits. Both series were created by WXYZ's George W. Trendle, a notorious cheapskate, who was well known in the radio broadcast business for pinching his pennies in the production of his radio dramas. The film serials also used a classical soundtrack, unless the action on-screen demanded something else. To this day, people can listen to "March of the Swiss Soldiers" without at least thinking "Hi-yo Silver!" Lone Ranger also features Liszt's "Prelude to a Silver Bullet", and Mendelssohn's "Rustler's Cave Overture"? | |

In GoShogun, Bundle's battleship flies around with gigantic speakers that blare out various classical pieces. In episode 6, the song of choice is Edvard Grieg's "Morning Mood" from "Peer Gynt." (The Standard Snippet for sunrises.) The Goshogun pilots recognize the music and comment on it, saying "Grieg would roll over in his grave." Another episode features Johann Strauss' "On The Beautiful Blue Danube". In Super Robot Wars, this is the only song that can override any other, including the memetic "TROMBE!" In pisode, |

The soundtrack to It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is primarily royalty-free easy listening music. Originally done because the show had a low budget, it's usually in contrast with the show's subject matter. Additionally, Tchaikovsky's "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy" From The Nutcracker is the theme of any nefarious scheming or plotting by the Gang. The standard tune for something particularly sinister is "Funeral March of a Marionette" (more recognizable as the theme tune for Alfred Hitchcock Presents). |

The Konami game Magician's Quest: Mysterious Times/Enchanted Folk and the School of Wizardry takes this almost to the point of abuse. Almost all of the overworld and event music is based on existing classical pieces, ranging from the well-known (like "Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy" and "Beautiful Dreamer"), there are also some lesser-known oddballs thrown in (such as the "Love" theme being "En bateau" from Debussy's Petite Suite). However, the game also provides a large assortment of original compositions for you to play on your in-game instruments, so, there you go. | |

Lampshaded on iCarly, when Spencer is trapped in a heating vent and trying to amuse himself, "And now, a medley of your favorite songs from the public domain!" And before that in iSpy a Mean Teacher, when Carly, Freddie, and Sam get caught in Ms. Briggs house they act like they were there to surprise her for her birthday, "Let's sing our public domain birthday song!" |

Bach's "Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben" Mozart's Die Zauberflöte Bizet's "Habanera" and "Votre toast, je peux vous le rendre" Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries" and "Bridal Chorus" Mussorgsky's Night on Bald Mountain and "Promenade" |

The original 1980s version of Sid Meier's Pirates! featured short snippets of classical music to accompany certain events. Many came from Handel's Water Music. For the 1990s version, Pirates! Gold, music was taken from the works of J.S. Bach (and credited to him). The 2004 remake features loads of classical music, with several "cover" versions for each tune. Firaxis Games were developing Civilization IV at the same time, and so several tunes ended up in both games. | |

Gankutsuou likes this trope, too. Tchaikovsky's "Manfred Symphony" is used a lot—the First Movement is the Count's own theme and excerpts from latter movements are also used here and there. Eugénie plays the First Movement (edited, though) of Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2 and Schumann's "Traumerei" during her performance in the Opera, on Luna Albert and Franz meet the Count during a performance of "Lucia di Lammermoor", later in Paris the Count invites Albert to a performance of "Robert le Diable"... and the opening theme song is based partly on Chopin's Etude Op.10 No.3. | |

Animaniacs: Wakko's Wish has a musical number sung to the tune of the second "Hungarian Rhapsody". Being a nod to the classic shorts (as was Tiny Toon Adventures in a way), a lot of the Background Music in Animaniacs had nods to popular pieces of the Romantic Era, and a huge portion of the songs were based on classical pieces too. Making a full list would take too way, way too long. |

Despite decades of wonderful original music composed for Sesame Street, what tune is used (with altered lyrics) to end every Elmo's World segment? "Jingle Bells".

The Road Runner's theme in Looney Tunes is from Smetana's Bartered Bride. A great deal of Looney Tunes music are actually classical tunes. Examples include tunes from Rossini's Barber of Seville and Liszt's second Hungarian Rhapsody, and Felix Mendelssohn's "Spring Song". Mendelssohn's "Fingal's Cave" was always played when the Mynah Bird showed up in Chuck Jones' "Inki" series. Franz Liszt's second Hungarian Rhapsody just might be the most used work in Western Animation. Looney Tunes used it in "Rhapsody Rabbit", Tom and Jerry used it in "Cat Concerto" (these two were so similar, each studio accused the other of plagiarism), Woody Woodpecker used it, and it was used in the Donald Duck/Daffy Dueling Pianos skit at the Ink & Paint Club in Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)'s score is a combination of drum solos and classical music, including the slow movements of Tchaikovsky's Symphonies Nos. 4 and 5, the opening of Mahler's Symphony No. 9, Ravel's "Pavane pour une infante defunte" and Piano Trio, and the first two movements of Rachmaninoff's Symphony No. 2. | |

Westworld has Claude Debussy's "Reverie" which was first used by Ford to calm down Maeve who went hysterical after losing her daughter to the Man in Black. It turns out that this is the favorite piece of Arnold's late son which, in turn, was played when Arnold arranges his Thanatos Gambit with Dolores. More fittingly, this piece was played when Ford closes his farewell speech to the Delos board by welcoming his new narrative: kickstarting the Robot War by letting Dolores shoot him in the head and firing at the guests. Season 2 has Beethoven's Symphony No. 7 where the Delos security and the rebelling Hosts fight each other to death. |

The musical numbers in Mickey, Donald, Goofy: The Three Musketeers are sung to the tune of classical pieces. Pete's Villain Song is set to "In the Hall of the Mountain King" by Edvard Grieg. The main theme sung by the Musketeers is set to the Infernal Galop from Offenbach's Orpheus In the Underworld, better known as the Can-Can. "Sweet Wings of Love" is the Blue Danube Waltz by Johann Strauss, Jr. "Chains of Love" is the "Habanera" aria from Bizet's Carmen. The Gilbert and Sullivan opera The Pirates of Penzance plays a minor part in the plot. Even though it shouldn't exist yet. |

The Ren & Stimpy Show frequently uses Romantic Era music in the background; Tchiakovsky's Nutcracker Suite and AntonÃn Dvořák's Symphony #9 "From the New World" were particularly popular. The yodeling song used in the title card for "The Boy Who Cried Rat" was later used in The Mighty B! episode "Bee Afraid" and SpongeBob SquarePants' "Truth or Square". Many of the music cues and background songs from Ren and Stimpy are stock music library tracks that have been used in many other cartoons like SpongeBob SquarePants, The Loud House, and The Casagrandes; and even in several live-action shows like Bill Nye the Science Guy. |

Fantasia. The movie wasn't a success when first released in 1940; this was acknowledged in one edition of The Man Who Came to Dinner, which had Sheridan Whiteside consoling Walt Disney over the phone: Also Fantasia 2000, though several of the pieces are actually still under copyright. |

In Banjo-Kazooie, Grunty's theme (and thus, the music heard everywhere through her lair, the Hub Level) is actually a minor-key version of "Teddy Bears' Picnic". Since both The Hero, Banjo, and the Damsel in Distress, Tootie, are bears, it's fitting... if not rather odd. | |

The Devil on G-String: "Air on a G-String" was used as a motif and the title screen music, as evidenced by the title ("The Devil on G-String"). "Songs My Mother Taught Me" and "Ride of the Valkyries" are also used as Background Music for Kanon's figure-skating competition. In fact, the former is an important motif and the title for Kanon's chapter. Almost of the Background Music in G-Senjou no Maou are remixed versions of various classical pieces. |

Pizza Tower: The tutorial level theme is a remix of the classic Italian song "Funiculi Funicula", fitting with the game's pizza theme and the level's nature as a level made entirely out of pizza and random shapes. Sugary Spire: In this candy-themed fangame of the above, the tutorial's theme is instead a take on the 1902 song “The Entertainer� to mirror Pizza Tower's use of “Funiculi Funicula� for its own tutorial. |

The Wizard of Oz, in addition to its many original songs, uses quotes and arrangements of various existing tunes in the Background Music: "The Happy Farmer" in the early Kansas scenes. "The Whistler and His Dog" when Toto escapes from Mrs. Gulch. "In the Shade of the Old Apple Tree" when Dorothy and Scarecrow are in the orchard. Felix Mendelssohn's "Scherzo in E Minor" when Toto runs from the witch's castle. An extended arrangement of Modest Mussorgsky's ''Night on Bald Mountain" is used in the climax in the witch's castle. "Gaudeamus Igitur" when Scarecrow gets his dipoloma. "Home! Sweet Home!" when Dorothy wishes herself back to Kansas. |

OutNumbered used Bach's Prelude in C minor, two movements of Mozart's Symphony No. 40, and the first two variations of Paganini's 24th Caprice. Treasure Mountain plays C.P.E. Bach's "Solfeggietto" on the title screen and upon reaching the top of the mountain. One of Beethoven's country dances was used as a level theme. |

Frogger: Frogger plays a snippet of Camptown Races whenever the title character dies, while levels are introduced by a variety of classical themes. The "game start" jingle is "Inu no Omawari-san" ("The Dog Policeman"), which is a traditional Japanese nursery rhyme. The line the game plays is the first one, which goes "Maigo no maigo no koneko-chan. Anata no ouchi wa doko desu ka?" ("Lost, lost kitten, where is your address?") The Commodore 64 version employs a sort of mash-up/medley theme that very notably includes Yankee Doodle. Yankee Doodle also appears in the arcade version. That song exists in Japan as a children's song, with totally different lyrics. That's probably why it was included. That said, many of the songs in arcade Frogger avert this, to the point that later releases had to change them. |

Mr. Passion, a mid-boss in Chapter 2 of Mother 3, is a ghostly composer, so naturally, his battle theme comprises a medley of various classical music excerpts.note starting with the First Movement of Beethoven's 5th Symphony, moving into Etude for Ghosts (a battle theme in the game which seems to be based on the Third Movement of Piano Concerto No. 2 by Saint-Saëns), then into Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1 and Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony, and finally into Mozart's Symphony No. 40 in G Minor before looping If you know when to come back and challenge him again as Lord Passion, he'll have a brand new battle theme with different classical pieces.note starting again with Beethoven's 5th, it'll then move into Toccata and Fugue in D Minor by Bach, then into Handel's Messiah, and finally the First Movement of Antonio Vivaldi's Four Seasons: Spring In addition to that, there's also "Leder's Gymnopédie", which is actually Erik Satie's Gymnopédie No. 1, used when Leder tells Lucas and his friends about the true history of the world. |

Punch-Out!!: The NES version uses a lot of public domain music for ring entrance themes, most of which it shares with the Wii game. Glass Joe's entrance theme is La Marsellaise, the French National Anthem. "Ride of the Valkyries" is used as the themes for Von Kaiser and Super Macho Man (only in the NES version), who does a Pec Flex to it. "Sakura, Sakura", a traditional Japanese folk song, is used for Piston Honda's ring entrance. Don Flamenco's theme is an excerpt from the Georges Bizet's opera Carmen. Soda Popinski's theme is "Song of the Volga Boatman". |

Final Fantasy In Final Fantasy II, Princess Hilda (actually the Lamia Queen in disguise) attempts to seduce Firion to an excerpt from the Swan Lake overture. The dancing girls from across the series typically use public domain music for their routines: Final Fantasy III: "Dance of the Little Swans" from Swan Lake. Final Fantasy IV: Khatchaturian's "Sabre Dance". Final Fantasy V: The Habanera from Carmen. As Bartz improves his piano skills in Final Fantasy V, he plays excerpts of Schubert's "Marche Militaire No. 1," Stephen Foster's "Beautiful Dreamer," Mozart's "Rondo all Turca," and Debussy's "Arabesque No. 1." "Fiddle de Chocobo" from Final Fantasy VII incorporates bits of "Oh Susanna" and "Camptown Races". |

Wolfgang Krauser's music from Fatal Fury 2 (and its update Fatal Fury Special) is an arrangement of Mozart's Dies Irae, even with an orchestra playing the song in the background. Said music was recycled in The King of Fighters '96, and an 8-bit rendition played in SNK vs. Capcom: Match of the Millennium on the Germany stage (a recreation of Krauser's original stage). Likewise, Lacrimosa acts as his theme song in Real Bout Fatal Fury Special and Real Bout Fatal Fury 2. Krauser himself is a tribute to Mozart, sharing his first name, and his favourite music is listed as Opera and classical music. It surely shows in the games. |

The original The Legend of Zelda barely ended up averting this trope, thus avoiding a Metal Gear Solid-like situation. Originally, the plan was to have an arrangement of Ravel's "Bolero" play on the title screen, but on the day before the developers compiled the ROM, it was discovered the song wasn't out of copyright yet. An original theme based on the overworld music (which had already been composed) was whipped up in one night to replace it. | |

2001: A Space Odyssey was renowned for its use of classical music in its soundtrack, and most Anglophones will automatically identify the song "Also sprach Zarathustra" with the movie (You could say that the Blue Danube Waltz is also related to 2001 due to the use of it in the space station and Moon Station Docking sequences too see this video) — with one exception (see below). Though it wasn't all public domain — Györgi Ligeti's music was altered and used without his permission, and Ligeti threatened to sue Kubrick and MGM. Originally the classical pieces were merely used to set the general pace for an original score by Alex North, but Kubrick obviously knew a good fit when he heard it. |

In the season 10 finale of Modern Family, all of the songs in the talent show scene are public domain: "Carolina in the Morning" (sung by Mitch and Cam), "Turkey in the Straw" (played on the banjo by Luke), and "Fur Elise" (played on the piano by Phil). Other public domain songs such as "Camptown Races" and "Oh, Susanna" appear in later episodes. | |

Fairy Tail has some rather frequent public domain tracks: "Habanera" from Carmen is most frequently used as the leitmotif of the Magic Council. The Cancan Song typically plays whenever there's a Bar Brawl. One of the official soundtracks has a track titled "Ifuu Doudou". Its meaning? "Pomp and Circumstance", aka the "Graduation Song". Fittingly, it's usually played at the end of an arc, after the Big Bad is finally defeated. "Air on the G String" plays during Juvia's first appearance in Episode 21. Expect to hear Also sprach Zarathustra when Juvia starts Chewing the Scenery, such as when she mistakes Lucy for her rival for Gray's affections in Episode 25. Another official track, "Tower of Paradise" ("Rakuen no Tou"), is a shortened version of Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2. Franz Schubert's "Ave Maria" plays during one of Juvia's Imagine Spots on Sirius Island. The spring suite from Vivaldi's The Four Seasons plays while Kain has an Imagine Spot of his own where he imagines that Levy, Lisanna, and Cana are all fawning over him. |

Let's get the BEMANI examples out of the way first, because there's going to be a lot of them. beatmania / IIDX / III: "V" (Winter from Vivaldi's "Four Seasons") "�命" (Chopin's Revolutionary Etude, and a damn good translation pun - "kakumei" means "revolution(ary)", and that it's the One-Hit-Point Wonder boss on a DanceDanceRevolution game too). "Sakura" ("Sakura Sakura", a Japanese folk song) "DIAVOLO" and "Thor's Hammer" (Lizst's Grandes études de Paganini No. 6 (Theme and Variations) in A minor and La Campanella respectively) "DORNWALD ~junge~" (Maria durch ein Dornwald ging, a German Christmas carol) DanceDanceRevolution: "END OF THE CENTURY" (Beethoven's "Ode to Joy") "SPEED OVER BEETHOVEN" ("Für Elise") Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix: "Underground Mozart" (Eine Kleine Nachtmusik)note It's also a medley of sounds from Mario Bros., another game that song appeared in, as mentioned below "Pipe Pop" (Turkish March) "Garden Boogie" (Carmen) "Fishing Frenzy" (Csikos Post) "In the Whirlpool" (Pomp and Circumstance) "Frozen Pipes" (Old Folks at Home) "Rendezvous on Ice" (Les Pâtineurs) "Always Smiling" (Tritsch-Tratsch-Polka) "Up, Down, Left, Right (Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star) "Choir on the Green" (Ah, Lovely Meadow) GITADORA: "Classic Party" series (medleys) pop'n music: "CLASSIC" series (medleys) REFLEC BEAT: CSIKOS POST -SEISHUN SKA-PUNK MIX!- ("Csikós Post") Gymnopédie -kors k mix- (Satie's Gymnopédie No.1) The "Rb.Conductor" series (Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance March #1, Brahms' Hungarian Dance No.5, Strauss' Radetzky March, Op.228) And then you have songs that subvert this by actually being original works, like "A" and "Piano Concerto No. 1 'Anti-Ares'". The latter's supposed composer, Virkato Wakhmaninov (an alias of Jun Wakita, one of Konami's current in-house music artists), even has a brief fictional biography about him. |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: In episode 33, "May The Best Pet Win!", "Ride of the Valkyries" plays when Rainbow Dash races the candidates for her pet in Ghastly Gorge. In "Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep?", the song sung by the cutesy flowers in Rainbow Dash's nightmare is "This Old Man" with different lyrics. Considering the point of this scene was to mock Sickeningly Sweet, the song choice is probably more of a Take That! at Barney & Friends than anything. |

Doctor Who: In the commentary for "The Christmas Invasion", Russell T. Davies noted how happy composer Murray Gold was that "Jingle Bells" was out of copyright, and so could be rescored as incidental music in that episode. Ravel's "Bolero" was used in "The Impossible Planet". Strauss's "Emperor Waltz" is the "soothing music" played in the TARDIS in "Vincent and the Doctor". |

Gyruss uses a rocked-out arrangement of Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor. With power chords. Compared to the "beep boop BIP beep" soundtrack many other video games of the era had, it's actually pretty amazing. Confirmed to be inspired by this cover. | |

City Connection made excessive use of the first movement of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No.1 as the main game BGM, even if it’s remixed considerably for each level. Also, The German folk tune “Flohwalzer� plays when you knock a cat and send it flying. This is an in-joke as the Japanese name for the song is "Neko Funjatta", lit. "I Stepped on the Cat." Lastly, a few bars from “Turkey In The Straw� plays if you run into a spike or a police car. |

The song "Classico" in Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny is a medley of numerous classical tunes, with very profane lyrics.. The context is that Kage was playing instrumental classical pieces on acoustic guitar as a solo street performer, then when Jables noticed he wasn't making much money at it, he spontaneously jumped in with lyrics extolling Kage's musical talent in an attempt to get more people to listen. | |

Japanese mobile game Puzzle & Dragons has mostly original compositions, but uses Japanese folk song "Sakura Sakura" for the New Year event dungeon boss battle. When the Neon Genesis Evangelion collaboration event runs, the dungeon music is an arrangement of Johann Sebastian Bach's Air on the G String, and its boss battle music is anarrangement of Ludwig van Beethoven's "Ode to Joy". |

Peggle: Successful completion of each level in the original game is met with a rousing rendition of "Ode to Joy". Renfield's theme is "Toccata and Fugue in D minor", and "Morning Mood" plays when the game is launched. Peggle 2 takes things a step further by using a different piece of classical music for winning a stage as each character in the game, which is also remixed for their stage themes: Bjorn keeps "Ode to Joy" from the first Peggle, Jeff uses the finale of the William Tell Overture, Berg uses "Dance of the Hours" from La Gioconda, Gnorman uses the 1812 Overture, Luna uses "In the Hall of the Mountain King", Windy uses the "Hallelujah Chorus" from Messiah Pt. II, and Jimmy Lightning uses excerpts from The Marriage of Figaro (with Jimmy singing along once you finish a level). "Morning Mood" also returns from the first game. |

Along the years, the Taiko no Tatsujin games have featured a lot of music from the Classic music genre repertoire, ranging from accurate renditions to original remixes as well. So much songs, in fact, that are all grouped into a dedicated 'Classic' music genre folder in the games! | |

Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance], while hailing from a series known for having its very own share of awesome tracks in the first place, has three pieces of classic music in its soundtrack because of one of its worlds representing Fantasianote (for those curious, the name of the world is "Symphony of Sorcery"). note The tracks are Night On Bald Mountain, returning from Kingdom Hearts as well as the boss associated with said song, Chernabog, L'apprenti Sorcier, the well-known theme used for the famous sequence featuring the army of brooms used as BGM for Sora's playthrough of the world, and finally, The Nutcracker Suite, which does the same for Riku. In order to avoid abrupt changes in the BGM, there are no dinstinctions between "Field BGM" and "Battle BGM", and to keep the feeling of a "musical experience", in that world, musical, silly sound effects replace the usual ones, including the characters' in-battle Voice Grunting. | |

Mega Man Legends The music played for Megaman Juno's final form in the first game is a rather chilling remix of Bach's "Little Fugue in G Minor". The music played while in the Sulfur Bottom in the sequel is Vivaldi's Spring. |

Catherine features lots of classical music for its puzzle segments, including "Jupiter" from Gustav Holst's The Planets, Bach's Toccata and Fugue, and Dvořák's New World symphony. Most of the bosses use "Baba Yaga's Hut" from Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition (except Doom's Bride and Shadow Vincent, which use a piece by Atlus composer Shoji Meguro, and the final boss, which uses Chopin's "Revolutionary" etude). | |
