It was my final project for orchestration and arranging class (theory is a different class). Yes I have a music degree, focused on flute performance and music education.

I'd pick a lot of instrumental compositions by Beethoven and Bach and Telemann because they are highly melodious. Those melodies are the basics for pieces of all the following composers.
When it comes to vocal main-melodies I would say usually the aria of any opera has to be really beautiful. You won't understand a word of the lyrics of the song, but the melody will be stuck in your head.
The modern genres often sound pretty equally seen from their main melody. What I like about songs is the development or small elements in music, feeling or a concept etc.
It's hard to name a single song as there are lots of masterpieces, in general!
Thanks,

J.S. Bach and Pyotr Tchaikovsky are my favorite composers. I'm not too fimiliar with Émile Waldteufel, but what I heard I think he can come up with some beautiful melodies. I slighty familiar because his work is sometimes used in movies. I think the long notes of the strings sound very beautiful in The Skater's Waltz. 'Schafe können sicher weiden' is my favorite Bach piece, the melody of the flutes are the strings are a bit melancholy. I like how 'Wachet Auf' develops.

Cantata Nº 208, 'Sheep May Safely Graze' BWV 208


Bach - Cantata nº 140, 'Wachet Auf', BWV 140


Émile Waldteufel - The Skater's Waltz, Op. 183
