Hmmm... Thought this was only for 19th and 20th century pieces. A lot of the pieces mentioned above obviously predate that. That's why I barred my original mention of one Domenico Scarlatti.
The guy's work is ****ing nuts. Probably the most underrated pianist, and by far writes some of the most technically challenging/sounding pieces I've ever heard.
Another amazing one that fits in the time period. Rachmaninov:

Terence Hill, as recently confirmed during an interview to an Italian TV talk-show, was offered the role but rejected it because he considered it "too violent". Dustin Hoffman and John Travolta declined the role for the same reason. When Al Pacino was considered for the role of John Rambo, he turned it down when his request that Rambo be more of a madman was rejected.

Al Pacino = God
