There can be only one!

I shan't reveal my vote, though.  Secret ballot, and all that.

Hollywood tells us that Beethoven was the only dog amongst these. And a mighty big dog he was too.

But his Bach was worse than his bite.

No, BIG dogs.

Hear hear!

The biggest dog is Bach.  A real snarler.

No, BIG dogs.

In a sumo ring I would put my money on Brahms as big dog :-*

Edit: but to answer the question, I choose Beethoven, not particularly because I like him, but because he chronologically and stylistically comes closer to my preferred aesthetic.
