Quintuplets 2000 Music Question

This is episode #403, where the boys watch the performances of the Romanian Vladchick Contorting Quintuples then try to form their own performing troupe.

At the beginning of the show, when the boys are watching the Cirque du Cheville performances, there are several musical pieces that play as the scenes go from one to the next.

I want to find out the artists and titles of the music that plays. I checked the credits, but there is no mention of musical titles. Does anyone know the titles of the music that plays?

AFAIK most of the music is created (or at least composed, produced I'm not sure about) by Trey and Matt, so chances are it was them. Check the music credits at the end of the episode.

I checked the ending credits. Both Trey and Matt are credited for the music, but there are no titles, etc. It's possible that Trey or Matt composed the music - but my guess is that they probably didn't.

The music seems like snippets of classical music - just like the kind of music you'd expect to be played at that type of performance. It seems to be rather intricate music to compose just to play several little snippets for the show. My guess is that they sampled something else . . . but if they did, the sampling isn't listed in the credits.

Is there any way to find out for sure?

If you check out Trey Parker on IMDB he has quite a number of composition credits, and I have heard that he is a very highly trained pianist (and probably other instruments). He has done the composition for a number of his movies (South Park and Cannibal), and I'm sure he is capable of producing the pieces that you mention.

Matt seems to be the rock side of the music for the show and movies, but I'm sure he has some input to the other pieces that are used.

Generally that's what the credits are for, so I would trust them. They might have licenced them or used royalty free sample cd's, but I'm of the opinion that Trey is a bit of a genuius when it comes to such things, so I think that he would just compose rather than take (It's all about the money to them, and if they do it all, they get all the money :)
