239 is Verdi's Don Carlos, the scene just before Eboli's Veil Song

240 sounds as if it could be from Rimsky-Korsakov's orchestral suite from Christmas Eve.

Absolutely correct, IGI! (I had a funny feeling you'd get that rather quickly! Cheesy)

And it's from this recording:

240 is the Tatar invasion and battle of Kerzhenets from Rimsky's Legend of the Invisible City of Kitezh Suite.

IGI, that's just about spot on (and surely correct for our purposes). The recording's actually from a complete performance of the opera, but the same music (from the entr'acte between Act 3 scenes 1 and 2) also appears in the suite.

Well done! Cheesy
