It's such a diverse piece: a cornucopia of styles, moods, and tempos.  And that opening clarinet feature is absolutely amazing.

Even if you're not a fan of classical/jazz music, you've probably heard it.  United Airlines is quite fond of using it in their commercials:

I love it, and I normally don't like something so influenced by... Jazz.

YEAHHHHHH!!!

The bit in Fantasia 2000 was pretty cool too.
How it was so many different lives connected. I thought it went well with the style of the entire piece.
