My favorite composers, with my favorite pieces by them (just for kicks):

Ludwig Van Beethoven, Symphony No. 3 in E-Flat major
Frederic Chopin, Prelude in E-Minor Op. 28
Sergei Rachmaninoff, Piano Concerto No. 3 in D-Minor (don't you just love those big fat chords?)
Franz Liszt, Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2
Edvard Greig, In The Hall Of The Mountain King - Peer Gynt Suite

Not in any order really.

I guess b classical, we mean classical music (not the era). In that case:

Mozart
Beethoven
Wagner
Hayden
Bach

jakub · 04-16-2010, 12:36 PM

I would say:

Sergei Rachmaninoff
Dmitri Shostakovich
Claude Debussy
Frederic Chopin
Karol Szymanowski

But there is maaany more out there

I like both Beethoven and Tcahikovsky. Especially Mozart. I think, they're the greatest classical music player. Will you visit my new blog just looking for a while ? Thanks ..

Debussy
Mozart
JS Bach

piknik · 04-28-2010, 12:46 AM

in no particular order:

1. bartók (the string quartets)
2. zoltán kodály (the cello sonata, op. 8, played by rostropovich kills me every time)
3. rachmaninov (especially the sonata for cello and piano and the piano concertos)
4. mahler
5. bach (in particular the 6 cello suites)

i know it says top 5 but i also adore dvořák and debussy.
