On western music generally (though there's an episode devoted to piano), I'd recommend Howard Goodall's Big Bangs.

Daniel Barenboim's series of masterclasses on Beethoven sonatas is well worth a look.

Simon Rattle's Leaving Home: Orchestral Music in the 20th Century is excellent, if a bit pricey.

If you do a google search and type in " In search of ..." in the dots put in a composer and there are dvds on the lives of different composers

Or do a search " great composers dvd" and you there will be some good ones also mainly on the lives of the composers

If your a die hard bach fan check this one out. its very informative.
