Well, you are right Bob, I guess I should've mentioned that it was a folk-tune. Even so, the Mozart differs quite a lot.

Bartok was another folk-tune user.

The Mozart theme and variations on 'Twinkle Twinkle" are pretty good.

Piano first, then orchestra.

Oh man, it brings back my school girl days.. I played this when I was 16 with a school friend and won first place in a local music festival. I wish I played as well as these people in the second link...

Anything Chopin or Bach.

I also enjoy myself some good old Ben Folds when it comes to piano.
