The "storm" segment of the William Tell piece is one of those works which 
has pretty
well become a cliche...when I was a child, my dad had a 16mm movie projector 
and
a very few commercial films, One was a Mighty Mouse cartoon which depicted a
storm at sea...and used Rossini's piece as background!

There are a couple of other pieces that have also become musical 
"cliches"...!
