Classical music is a term referring to ecclesiastical and concert music originating in Europe from the 2nd millennium AD whose traditions later spread throughout Earth.

Earth opera is part of classical music. (VOY: "The Swarm", "Virtuoso", "Renaissance Man")

At regular intervals, concerts of classical music were held aboard the USS Enterprise-D, usually in Ten Forward. (TNG: "Sarek", "In Theory", "Lessons")

National Anthems

Parts of the American National Anthem (The Star-Spangled Banner) were heard in TOS: "The Omega Glory" when the American flag was brought in.
Parts of the French National Anthem (La Marseillaise) were heard when the crew was seeing Q's Napoleonic creatures for the first time in TNG: "Hide and Q".
Neither piece was played by characters in the episode or heard by the protagonist but were part of the soundtrack of the episodes, which is why they are presented as italicized background information here.

Unidentified classical music
