Why would changing the arrangements suddenly make it classical?
What about pop or rock songs that already have orchestral elements to them when they're originally written?
That doesn't suddenly make them classical music does it?
So the answer to your original question the answer is no, it's orchestral music.
If I were to play Sex Farm Woman by Spinal Tap on a mandolin that doesn't suddenly make it a folk song.
