Jón Leifs / Hekla - [Op 52 (1964) for orchestra and percussion] (Extremely loud. The score calls for the use of anvils, chains, sirens, etc. Will probably seem weird if you're not familiar with modern orchestral music.)

Vagn Holmboe / Symphony No. 8 (Kind of similar to the Nielsen/Sibelius symphonic type of music)

Leoš Janáček / Sinfonietta (Great piece for any new classical listener...upbeat, catchy)

Carl Nielsen / Symphony No. 3 (The first movement is probably exactly what you're looking for)

I can provide more once I get some feedback on these four.
