Specifically called “fanfare and gallop”. The flute solo “calm” before the “storm” was frequently used by Chuck Jones for idyllic moments in his cartoons; the master of the use of classical passages in animation.
That is why I have argued against background music in role-playing games. The players will react, “Cellos and basses tremulo! The characters should watch out for what’s around the next corner!” Sorta like High Anxiety with the LA Philharmonic rehearsing in the bus.
