help me out. (lyrics, soundtrack, rock, cd, album)

[holdfasthope]

im looking to get into some classical, i was listening to the radio the other day, and heard some songs i liked, but didnt have any paper or such to write down, and there was no way i was remembering what the composer's name was. (it was long).
So, anywho. Can someone reccomend me some classical orchestral stuff. That is more on the fast side, i want something powerful, passionate, and all round rad.
Something like "The Last of the Mohicans" soundtrack. (best ever)
