What are some classic music pieces about the family?

Dear Fluther users,
a while ago I was looking for some classic music pieces about the family,
however I still can’t seem to get the desired results via search engines.

Thus far I know of “Ou peut-on etre mieux qu’au sein de la famille”,
from the play Lucile written by Marmontel & scored by Grétry,
the former existance of the “carmina convivalia”, tibiae-accompanied Roman chants about family ancestors and the legends surrounding them , of which only some scarce referencing survived to our days (and of course, no notation…), the “Symphonia Domestica” by Richard Strauß, and the ”“Siegfried Idyll” by Wagner.

Open to ancient, medieval, renaissance, baroque, classical, romantic periods, orchestral, opera, marching band, hymns, court music, instrumental or with vocals, the more the merrier. ~

Thank you very much indeed for your time&patience,
have a good day/night. Cheers!~
