There are other examples.

One literal example is Respighi's "Pines of Rome" wherein he has recorded 
bird calls noted in the score to be played in concert.

In another more figurative context, Beethoven in the second movement of the 
Pastoral Symphony has scored the flutes and piccolos to play cuckoos and 
bird calls.

I'm sure there are more but those two immediately spring to mind.
