That would probably disqualify Halloween, Suspiria, Tenebrae, and even Local Hero – I was amazed that my favourite film theme – 'Going Home (Theme of the Local Hero)' – wasn't in it.
However, if they are only including music "from the classical repertoire", then that brilliant and beloved piece of music wouldn't qualify. I listened to it first thing this morning!

That's fair enough but
Blade Runner was in there which is Vangelis playing keyboards essentially. Not in the least bit classical in any traditional sense. Carpenter's
Halloween which is piano lead certainly qualifies ahead of that.
