I'd start with the early and work your way forward. Here are a few recommendations to get you started:
Baroque era:
Johann Sebastian Bach--The six "Brandenburg concertos"
Johann Pachelbel--"Canon in D"
Classical era:
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart--Symphonies #40 and #41
Franz Josef Haydn--"The Horn Signal" (Symphony #31)
Transitional period between the Classical and Romantic eras :
Ludwig van Beethoven--Symphonies #5 and #9
Franz Schubert--"The Great" (Symphony #9)
Romantic era:
Johannes Brahms--Symphony #4
Johann Strauss II--The Blue Danube
