Top 5 Classical Composers - Bellini48 - 01-09-2013
Ok. Here I go, although I would have done a top ten, if possible.
1. Monteverdi.
2. Palestrina
3. J.S. Bach
4. Vivaldi
5. Mozart.
But then, and not inferior to the others: Beethoven, Schubert, Chopin, Liszt, Brahms, Mendelssohn, Faure', Mahler, Richard Strauss, Wagner (even though he was one big....better not say), Prokofiev, Debussy, Ravel, Mussorgsky, Puccini, Verdi....pretty extensive. Fact is, in one way or another abernector, I appreciate them all. I mean, I can go even further back and name Giovanni and Andrea Gabrieli, Orlando di Lasso, Don Gesualdo di Venosa, and oh boy, the list doesn't end.
