The game doesn't work much past the early 20th century, perhaps the last choice of a body of genre-specific works would be Shostavich and Bartok (I couldn't choose between their string quartets but would take Bartok's concertos over Shostavich any day). How would you genre-ize Cage or Xenakis or Reich (ok, maybe Reich) or Radigue? We'd get lost in their glorious obscure forms.
On Mozart, I agree with the article about the piano concertos. Having played K488 (#23) as teenager it never ceases to gives me goosebumps when I hear the second movement.
