Anybody watching the basketball game? What musical piece did Boston open with?
(No, not The Final Countdown - before that, when they had the lights off)

It's a classical string piece of some sort. And not O Fortuna, like you see on the teevee commercials.

Anybody know?

2. I've heard this one consistently at the very beginning of Boston home games...
Before the rock n roll stuff.

It's the sort of piece you might hear scoring a part of the Cruel Intentions movie, in some sense - lol.

So maddening - when it's a modern song, I can easily google it with just a few words. With a classical piece, I got nuthin.
