http://syntheway.net - William Tell Overture (Finale: March Of The Swiss Soldiers - Gioachino Rossini*) with Syntheway Strings, Aeternus Brass and DAL Flute VST Instruments
(PC Windows, Mac OS X see requirements below) 

* The William Tell Overture is the overture to the opera William Tell (original French title Guillaume Tell), whose music was composed by Gioachino Rossini.
The Finale, often called the "March of the Swiss Soldiers" in English, is in E major like the Prelude, but is an ultra-dynamic galop heralded by trumpets and played by the full orchestra. It alludes to the final act, which recounts the Swiss soldiers' victorious battle to liberate their homeland from Austrian repression. Although there are no horses or cavalry charges in the opera, this segment is often used in popular media to denote galloping horses, a race, or a hero riding to the rescue. Its most famous use in that respect is as the theme music for The Lone Ranger.
The Finale is also quoted by Dmitri Shostakovich in the first movement of his Symphony No. 15.
