Question Who is your fav classical composer?

I'd have to go with Mozart. And then maybe Bach.

I like Franz Shubert.

Mozart too. Mainly because I've really only heard his music, in the classical world that is.

I favour music that's too early to have a known composer - a lot of stuff that the Boston Camerata has covered on their Early Music albums. Beethoven is also up there.

hhmmm...tough choice. I just purchased the London syphony playing Holst's THe Planets. One of my favorites, Holst, that is... I really really like the short chorales by Bach, those are always nice. Beethoven's fifth is one of the best...especially the fourth movement. I think classical is all too good to pick a true favorite out of.

There was recently a performance of Holst's The Planets near me, with a laser show to go along with it.... I was SO mad that I missed it. They're great pieces.
