    The Tetris theme is based on a folk song titled "Korobeiniki" by a guy named Nikolai Nekrasov. The Nutcracker is by Tchaikovsky. Two different things.

    Which nocturne?
    Sorry, I don't know why I forgot to put it. Umm Nocturne in F# Major, Op. 15 No. 2.

    The theme from Also Sprach Zarathustra is still more well known as The 2001 theme. Is this so called "Tetris theme" one of the other two music choices on the original NES game? Because the Nutcracker theme is definitely the theme I most associate with Tetris.

    It was surprisingly hard to make a choice out of many good melodies, but if I were to choose just one, that could be "Finlandia" by Jean Sibelius. The use of various instruments is well thought of and really stirs one's emotions, and the Finnish choral hymn part itself is magnificent and has very nice lyrics.
