I'm much better at creating than figuring them out.

So is Nate! 

Actually, I think we all are. Much easier to go from one specific thing to a vast set of possible pictures than vice versa. Is that a picture of a tornado, a cloud, a storm, rain etc than the other way around.

Since you asked, I'll give you a hint. It is a front of sorts. Not the kind associated with large-scale weather patterns (cold, warm, stationary, etc.), but a kind associated with individual storms themselves (a windy kind!).

For the first one that I still can't believe no one got, start with the middle picture (the word for the middle picture will make it more obvious).

For the third one, the title isn't in English. However, it is simply the names of the instruments shown.

Big hint: the 2nd one (puzzle+butterflies) is by Elgar.

Also, the composer given by #17 is the composer of the piece given by #16.

I should modify #1 by adding this to the end:

Ah there you go. I will never get that one without googling. I barely know how many symphonies Elgar wrote, and his music usually makes me long for La Mer.
I know Karl likes and admires him, which leads me to wonder if Karl's childhood was like yours.

Enigma Variations?

Actually, while Baby Jesus Fish is usually attributed to Claude Halfdog it was in fact actually composed by Pinmuffins Panda. Little known fact.

Enigma Variations?

Elgar wrote that?

Enigma Variations?

Yup!

I like Elgar, but I need to hear more of his music. I love the EV, the string serenade (which I played in high school), and the CC (also played in high school).

Forget about the muffins -- not important. Who is that a picture of on what? And where in the US are you likely to find pandas?

And the dog one is a composer that you don't seem to like that much.

Now its too easy! Takamitsu.

Not quite a game, but who knows the music illustrated by my Avatar?

Hmm, it's a Berthe Morisot, La Sonate de Mozart. I confess I had to check the title from my hard-drive.

Yes indeed, with her daughter Julie Manet on the violin.
