Your FIVE favorite composers.

Posted by Jacob Royal on December 5, 2009 at 9:29pm in Humor

Yes, I did say five.
You do not have to say why.
Just put them in order from favorite to fifth favorite.

1. Beethoven
2. Tchaikovsky
3. Frank *EDIT* Franck (sorry, I never spell his name correctly)
4. Liszt
5. Schubert

If your opinions differ (by that I mean if you hate a composer that someone else loves), please be civil in your arguments. That is more of a reminder for me than a request for you :)

 

Since I can still edit my list (hehehehe) I have a new one

1. Beethoven

2. Tchaikovsky

3. Strauss, R.

4. Shostakovitch

5. Barber for his Adagio (I've only heard that one piece by him)/ Mozart (For Sym. 40, Eine Kleine, violin+viola duets, Mass, and Requiem)

HM Liszt

    Yes yes I did. No need to point that out. *runs away crying*
    Yeah, I don't think I've ever spelled it right.

    Hmm.

    1. J.S Bach. (Though I remember one guy saying that stating that he is your favorite composer is a cop-out, since he simply defines what music is. Hehe.)

    2. A tie between Frank Zappa and Steve Reich

    3. Claude Debussy

    4. Erkki-Sven Tüür

    5. Arnold Schoenberg.
  • Kristin Anderson September 10, 2010 at 8:30pm
    Hmmm.... though the list changes some depending on mood...

    Beethoven
    Bartok
    Alban Berg
    George Crumb
    John Adams (Possibly tied with Steve Reich and/or Terry Riley. I can't decide!)
