World-class Western/European artists have been writing and performing "epic, upbeat, somewhat fast, and good to listen to" music for centuries. Try a few that have brought audiences to their feet decades. Also, many of these bear the "Used in a Bug Bunny cartoon"
seal of approval).
Think outside the box.
1812 Overture
William Tell Overture
Flight of the Bumble Bee
In the Hall of the Mountain King
Pictures at an Exhibition - The Great Gate of Kiev
Beethoven's 5th
Hallelujah Chorus
Anvil Chorus
Carmina Burana (Fortuna, Imperatrix Mundi)
Flight of the Valkyries
The various short dances from The Nutcracker
Night on Bald Mountain (and other pieces featured in Disney's Fantasia)
Bolero (think of ice dancing, not Dudley Moore movies)
More recent compositions that I like, that seem to have some staying power, are Copeland's Fanfare for the Common Man, and parts of his Rodeo ballet.
Perhaps an Olympic Fanfare.
A piece I particularly enjoyed playing for one year's HS Concert Band piece was Russian Christmas Music. Folks either love it or hate it; but the right arrangement does a great job of drawing you in early and then steadily building to magnificent wall-of-sound finale.
Perhaps an Olympic Fanfare?
Like I suggested above, think outside of the box.
