Great idea!
How about Also Sprach Zarathustra ("2001: A Space Odyssey") for the opening?

Or chasing dragons.
Still officially AGA 5d but I play so irregularly these days that I am probably only 3d or 4d over the board (but hopefully still 5d in terms of knowledge, theory and the ability to contribute).

1812 Ouverture. Every time I listen to it I feel like invading something

1812 is more suited for being invaded
If something sank it might be a treasure. And 2kyu advice is not necessarily Dan repertoire..

The 1st movement of Moonlight Sonata makes for a rather dramatic game.
Thinking like a go player during a game of chess is like bringing a knife to a gun-fight. Thinking like a chess player during a game of go feels like getting knifed while you're holding a gun...

Nothing compares to the last movement though... It always makes me punch the air and scream.
