Partridge Family season 4 episode 3
Kevin Olzak's review on IMDb states ""Beethoven,
 Brahms and Partridge" finds Keith trying to impress his new girlfriend 
Rachel (Barbara Sigel) by playing her some of his hit songs. Her 
disapproval is rooted in the belief that his music is frivolous, and 
can't compare with classical music (she's a cellist with the school 
band). Keith spends weeks composing a classical cello piece that will be
 unveiled publicly for a future Partridge concert. The negative reaction
 doesn't deter Rachel, reading terrible reviews about Beethoven's work, 
so the undaunted Keith is convinced that his masterpiece needs to be 
heard by the right people. Harold Gould puts in a nice cameo as Walter 
Yost, an expert on classical music, who assures Keith that music which 
makes people happy can be just as important as the more highbrow stuff 
("I find your songs charming"). The unreleased featured song (later 
heard in "Al in the Family") is "I'm Into Something Good," composed by 
Gerry Goffin and Carole King, a cover of the Herman's Hermits #13 hit 
from 1964, first recorded that same year as a solo hit (#38) by Cookies 
singer Earl-Jean."
