What's that classic love instrumental?

It's in so many commercials and videos, its very iconic. It's all peaceful but gets more exciting, I'm trying to look it up but I can't find the name anywhere. It sounds like a flute and or violin playing. If anyone knows please tell me, that k you.

Theme to A Summer Place?

- I found a video with the song in it, it plays as the video starts. I'm not good at describing but if you hear it, you'll know what I'm talking about, here: https://youtu.be/RKJsMNU54UM&t=0
- That's what came to my mind as well.
Possibly the aptly named 'Love Theme' from Tchaikovsky's Romeo and Juliet?
- Its the first song that plays in this video. https://youtu.be/RKJsMNU54UM&t=0 I couldn't Shazam it or anything, you probably know it though.
  
  Ah-ha as !debris@beehaw.org said, this is indeed Morning Mood, by Grieg. Oddly, I also immediately thought of The Simpsons' use of it!
- This is it
🎷
if you're thinking of music from diamond commercials, it might be Spring by Vivaldi
- I found a video with the song in it, ofc people always talk over it and never link the song. It's the first song that instantly plays. Maybe you know the name. https://youtu.be/RKJsMNU54UM&t=0
  
  This is Morning Mood by Edvard Grieg. I usually see it more associated with, well, the morning, than with love. Especially in cartoons.
  To such an extent that the Simpsons did a takeoff on it, even.
  Was sure you were talking about one of the other suggestions, especially the Tchaikovsky love theme from Romeo and Juliet, haha
Bolero by Ravel
- Ravel's orchestration of Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition is sublime.

- Ahhhhhh hahaha
  The sax solo in this feels like a dentist's drill to me
