Well, BMW (and some others) have used the fugue from Bach's Toccata&Fugue
in d for commercials.  Popular music?  Well, the opening of the toccata
is used to open almost every grade-B haunted-house movie I have had the
misfortune to see.  What an injustce!  The T&F in d is one of the most
exuberant and inspiring pieces of music I know.  Now if you want haunted
music, there is Mahler's first symphony.  Or how about Ive's Three Places
in New England ... Blather.
