Yes but not in a specific order. That's like saying 'Every lotto ball has been drawn at least once'.

The horn section was neither borrowed or stolen, simply copied.

Everyone in the world, English-speaking or otherwise, knows 'For Whom The Bell Tolls' was written by Hemingway. The phrase actually derives from the work of John Donne.

I suspect a Boz (perhaps Alain) input here, though. Can't really imagine Morrissey as a classical music listener, plsu remember, it was composed/recorded around the same time as "Teachers".

I remember that he played Chopins "Nocturnes" through the PA every night on the Ringleader tour - before the support act (who were then followed by the intermission tape).

The Smiths also used Prokofiev's "Romeo and Juliet" as intro music during the Meat Is Murder and The Queen Is Dead tours, iirc.

From Goddard's Mozipedia entry for "The Teachers Are Afraid Of The Pupils": The backing track closely followed Boorer's demo, a slowly spiralling descent into hell engined by a looped sample of the opening bars of Shostakovich's Sympony No. 5 in D Minor; according to Jonny Bridgwood, Boorer had experimented with various classical samples during this period, demoing another instrumental featuring a different orchestral work during the preliminary Southpaw Grammar sessions at Miraval studios in France.

This would strongly suggest the impetus came from Boz.

yes, true. He does have a ear for classical. Remember hearing Jacqueline du pre before the intermission tape on the ' Arsenal 'tour.

... guess they think he's all 'punk' with no edges soft to the touch. Oh so that's why it's called 'the loop' , Makes sense... but is that true?
