Agree with many re: Four Seasons, Beethoven's 9th and anything Mozart
Also Beethoven's 5th.
One of my favorites is Dvorak "New World Symphony" Beautiful
My favorite Mozart is Concerto for Oboe and Orchestra. The notes the Oboist has to hit and sustain are remarkable.

I'd recommend listening to some Masses (Palestrina, Mozart, etc.).

"Fanfare for the Common Man" Aron Copland is well know from "wide world of sports" TC show, but depending on how old you are you may not be familiar with it. Copland also composed "Rodeo" which was later made popular by Emerson Lake and Palmer.
Pachelbel's "Canon in D is also nice.

Clasical: Listen to the opera from "Carmen", listen to Bach Chorals, Wagner, Mozart, ect. If you'd like to hear some more "contemporary" classical music, check out Vaclav Nehlybel, particularly "Symphonic Movement".

See if you can find an old booklet called The Basic Repertoire. It was written by Martin Bookspan who was an writer for Stereo Review magazine. You might be able to find one on eBay. It contains not only the pieces of music but the best recordings of them to get. He used to update it every now and then so there are probably several different ones out there.
You might also look for the Penguin Guide to Classical Music. It's a similar sort of thing but also gives reviews of conductors and orchestras.
