What is/are your the most favourite composer s ?


...not neccesarily classical but the ones that just blasting song after song, I just mean a serious one i.e. with sophistication level certainly higher than a 12-bar blues.

I nominate the following in no particular order:

Irmin Schmidt,
Astor Piazzolla,
Rachmaninoff,
Prokofiev.
128x128marakanetz
Seems to be a real dearth of French composers here. How about Rameau, Couperin and Lully for Baroque? Also a fan of Henry Purcell, Ralph Vaughn Williams and Schubert.
BTW: I attended a solo recital by Astor Piazzolla on bandoneon.
In the spirit of your post, blasting song after song I would add to many of the above a few 20th century composers of popular music much of which is timeless.
