It's modern music, so not classical (it has to be old enough).  Though
it is played in a traditional or classical style.

I'm not sure they're a "hash" (some symbolic representation of some
clip-related data), though I know what you mean.  Since people can
upload identically titled video clips it has to be something different
than a hash of the title.  I think they're just a psuedo-random unique
ID or serial number generated at time of upload, it's all it needs to
be.

For one like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ob9LHPEaKY you can type
ob9LHPEaKY into the YouTube search gadget and it will find that clip. 
And for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-_qS_3KXBA typing just this
_qS_3KXBA bit into the search gadget works.

If you shorten them even further, they don't work, so it doesn't seem
to be pattern-based search matching.  There's something significant
about the - and D- prefixes.  I don't know why they're different, but
for every other clip that I've tried, it's the *entire* thing after ?v=

This is useful for those places that won't let you post URLs, you can
tell them to enter those codes into YouTube's search box to see a clip
you're referring to.  Usually you won't be prevented from typing
something like ob9LHPEaKY into things.

A couple of my favourites:  V3olBPGLNvc  and  1szrllml99M  Apart from
liking the music, it's also the apparently complete ease that a complex
piece is being played.

I'm playing this one:  cXoG3cSCYCE
