Especially the Scythian Suite, The Love for Three Oranges, Romeo and Juliet and Lieutenant Kijé just to name a few. I love all of his orchestral works save one. I don't like his Symphony No. 1 "Classical" as it sounds too much like Haydn. And I don't like Haydn.

Music is love,
Mono is not music to my ears.
Give me stereo or give me silence!
