At the very top of my list J S Bach.

Then in no particular order :-
Arvo Part
Durufle
Hugo Wolf
Schumann
Schubert
Beethoven
Bartok
Mozart
Handel
Ravel
Mahler. - - - - the list could go on & on . . . and OK that’s more than 5 but reducing favourites to so small a number is for me an impossible process.
Actually I’m more interested in people’s pet hates in classical music. On my part there’s a huge portion of English symphonic rubbish written in the late 18 the century. I’d add most of Philp Glass to the list too.
