I like the way this man talks...

How about one of the most inspirational composers of Frank's, Edgard Varese...

Definitely going with Bach and Beethoven, I mean, who the hell knows them?

I second that. Who else could get kicked out of a music school for composing "radical harmonies."

Following his Oscar snub I'll also say Johnny Greenwood.

And Chopin isn't underrated is he? Growing up I learnt tons of his stuff on piano. But maybe that's just because I was learning classical piano. But anyway he is certainly one of my favourites.

I wouldn't call Debussy underrated...

When someone says underrated, it means that people don't know about him/her or do not credit them. I feel like Debussy has been well recognized and has been credited by a great many of musicians after him.
