Beethoven is my favorite, obvioulsy! Tchiavosky has a good nut cracker motiff. If you like ballet, which I don't. Mozart was the king of operas, but I'm not crazy about operas myself. Bach and Handel are great. The Messiah by Handel is nice, adn Bach's Toccata and fugue, also #1 Prelude in C.

I enjoy more modern classical... "The Planets" series by Holst Most Piano pieces by Edvard Grieg (Including "Erotic Op. 43-5" of his Lyric pieces) The Moldau by Smetana is a very beautiful suite. Also, a modern-day French composer I really enjoy: Yann Tiersen (wrote the score for Amelie). Look up his songs "J'y Suis Jamais Alle," "Sur Le Fil," and "Comptine D'Un Autre Ete." Also Vince Giuraldi, Howard Shore, John Williams, and Danny Elfman are modern day composer I like.

You can't beat Beethoven for passion and enthusiam, even the pastoral symphony is passionate. I can't pick my favourite because he was a genius. My favourite living composer is Carl Jenkins. I heard the original Adiemus years ago on Classic fm, bought it as soon as I heard it again and found out what it was; I then bought Cantata Mundi but haven't got any of the others yet. If you haven't heard this ... music, buy it ... buy it now.

I like Scott brown for the harder side of composing, i find his melodies and undertones to be euophoric and uplifting beyond all belief. Along together with a pounding bass drum, you have what is called " a bounce "

Saint Saers 'Carnival of the Animals' Ravel's 'Bolero' Debussy's 'La Mer' are all good. Rachmaninov is good but i lost my tape of that and really need to replace it.
Faure's 'Pavane' and Satie's 'Gymnopedies' are also worth checking out too.

Beethoven has some really good piano works. Bach is also really good. It really depends upon what you are listening to it for.
