Yeah, I don't think it's there. He was listening to it only for a few seconds before Riker comes in, guesses at the composer, gets it wrong.. but couldn't make it out what Picard said.

The name of this beautiful piece is Vallon Sonore composed by Hector Berlioz. It's from the Les Troyens.
Hector Berlioz was born around 1800 in France and died in 1869.
I hope that helped.
