>>>(In fact, nearly all of the works ELP dealt with are not of the first order.)

Not always (though I'm very fond of Pictures at an Exhibition in its orchestrated form), but they translate well to a rock medium. And don't forget Renaissance's fondness for Rachmaninoff and Rimsky-Korsakov.

I'd listen.

Some of the music by Ligeti as used in the 2001 film by Kubrick would be an excellent addition as well.
