I'd listened to the symphony as a kid, off and on, but what really caught my attention and ignited my desire to learn classical piano was Steve Sharples' "Bolero" end credits piece for Moulin Rouge!. From there I found Ravel's "Boléro" in a Google search, and was pretty much hooked on what is broadly termed "classical" music.
