The Musical Suite, a sequence of dances developed in the early 17th century, originally consisted of the elements Allemande – Courante – Sarabande – Gigue. In later days, the sequence could be amended by additional dances such as Menuett, Gavotte, Bourrée, or Passepied and opened by an Ouverture; the Gigue was always the Finale. The probably most famous examples of the Baroque Suite can be found in the works of Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), most notably the suites for Violin and Violoncello solo, as well as the French and English Suites for Piano and the Suites for Orchestra.
The four principal dances of the Baroque Suite were:AllemandeCouranteSarabandeGigue
The suite "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" (a little night music) is an instrumental composition by Wolfgang Mozart in 1787. It was originally known as Serenade No. 13 for Strings in G major (K. 525). In 1975, Stephen Sondheim used the title (likely an homage to Mozart) for his musical "A Little Night Music". See link for more.

Today we don't have classical music composers. Classical music is period around XVI to XIX century, even part of XX century. It was pushed by, in one side, atonality (modern music) and popular music in the other. Now, it's possible that today's composers write in a classical way. For example, the Prokofiev's First Symphony 'Classical' or Stravinsky's Pulcinella suite. But, even, we can't talk of classical music nowdays.
