Mozart is my favorite composer and perhaps my favorite musician of all time. He made simply brilliant music. I've only scratched the surface though, there are a bunch of his operas I haven't heard...

Afraid I can't help you there, all I've heard from Holst is the Planets, but what a work that is. It's great from top to bottom.

Pretentious douchebags can be found clinging to any genre of music. I'd doubt you'd find a disproportionate number associated with classical.

The Fantasia treatment of the Rite of Spring was just fantastic. I love the dinosaur parts towards the end, particularly the extinction segment.

I've had a recording of Beethoven's full symphonies for a while now but I just recently discovered how good the 2nd movement of the 7th is. Great piece with a great central melody.
