Alex Masi covered a Bach tocatta; I don't know which one it is, but it's the
same one Emerson, Lake & Palmer did.

Yngwie, of course, is 90% quotes from Bach and Paganini.

I think the cover list had a version of "In the Hall of the Mountain King"; I
didn't notice who covered it.

I would think a fair number of the light-speed guitar-wizard types have recorded
classical pieces at one time or another, but I've been broke since that whole
movement started so I don't know for sure.

(apologies if this signature appears twice.  Our news software is in a state
of flux.)
