A very broad genre, indeed. So many subgenres, musicians, instruments....
I love Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet (1935) and Peter and the Wolf (1936):

Two more heavyweights:
*Gustav Holst: The Planets (1918). I like that connection Planets' names --> Classical mythology --> Classical music. *George Gershwin: Rhapsody in Blue (1924). Here, piano is played by Leonard Bernstein (which should be mentioned in this thread too):
