Rachmaninoff (Rachmaninov)'s Symphony 1, Op13... Amazing. If it doesn't come through correctly, skip to 30m 19s and start there. The whole thing is an amazing piece, but that's where it sounds like the soundtrack to a cavalry charge.

Many greats, this one is my favorite though. It just showcases the amazing power of a full orchestra.

There are good recordings/performances of it, and bad, but even an average recording still gets me ready for the day.

I just picked a performance of "Pictures at an Exhibition" at random, this performance literally moved me to tears at the finale. Unreal.
