It's not Torke's Yellow Pages, but you are barking 'up the right tree' so to speak...
Woof, woof, Ash is a tree... |

Ah, so it is, but that wasn't necessarily how the clue was intended, just that it is one of Torke's colour pieces. You'd better have another composer:
Chopin
Johann Strauss II
Torke
Sousa
Tchaikovsky
Donizetti

Mmmmm...need another clue to kick-start this one, methinks. Chopin Johann Strauss II Torke Sousa Tchaikovsky Donizetti Copland We already know the Torke is a colour piece, the Strauss a very famous waltz, the Tchaikovsky is a four movement orchestral work (not a symphony) and the Copland is a film score... and it's not a common word connection, btw  |

Colours?
Copland - The Red Pony
Torke - Ecstatic Orange
Johann Strauss II - The Blue Danube
Or is this too obvious?

Yes to the Copland, pw, but not the others. Although the Torke is a colour-related piece, that's not the nature of the connection...
Chopin
Johann Strauss II
Torke
Sousa
Tchaikovsky
Donizetti
Copland – The Red Pony

Yes, indeed. Really fun music, full of energy, I think. So, we have two so far, plus a gloomy Russian to add...
Chopin
Johann Strauss II
Torke – Bright Blue Music
Sousa
Tchaikovsky
Donizetti
Copland – The Red Pony
Elizabeth Poston
Rachmaninov
Don B practically stepped on the Tchaikovsky...

Unless it's the Sérénade mélancholique for violin and orchestra which may not have a colour in it init, it at least is a different sort of 'blue'.
