Question
I don't have a website to upload music, but I took the piano theme and put it on youTube; it's about 20 seconds.

(Honestly, the rap song is rubbish.. But my buddy's got the right mindset for it. And, I'm left to ponder the piano theme.)

Answer
The music is the love theme from Romeo and Juliet.  It is not a classical piece of music.  You should be able to find it on the soundtrack from the film Romeo and Juliet (it's an older film from the 60's, I think).  If you have a good music store near you like Virgin or Borders, you should be able to find the soundtrack in one of those stores.
