So far four people have

the correct my answer.

 
Corrected : )

No, you done botched it up, son.

You get one pick, and the criteria you use is your business:  enjoyment, influence, greatness, listening time, whatever.

Please keep in mind that your pick must be very clear to the Bulldog.

Not surprisingly, my no. 1 pick is Johann Sebastian Bach, my soulmate and the guy I listen to far more than any other composer.

I thought of using the poll process, but I'm sure that somebody would be left out in the cold.

Haydn, Joseph  (1732 - 1809).

That's not it. He just left out a few letters. He meant to say, "So far all of our people have the correct answer." See, nothing to change, just left off a few letters.

Haydn, Joseph  (1732 - 1809). 

Really? Aw, man...

Don't tell me you're surprised?

Freedom of choice is what you got. Freedom from choice is what you want . . . .

No, I've made my choice. Can't you tell?

You would be content with my second place pick though... 0:)

Mine would be Bach or Chopin. Just sayin'...

Mine would be Beethoven or Mozart. Either one is a hell of a fallback!

Yeah, up with Mozart. I just listen to a whole lot of Chopin...for some reason.

That makes you Classical Guy, dunnit? Heeheehee...

Ahem, gentlemen.

Abiding Bulldog's wishes to pick one and one only I choose Shostakovich. I don't think I could ever be without his music and his music, especially over the past few months, has conjured up so many feelings for me.

[North Star]

Beethoven, I have most CD's of his music. (no other way of leaving out Schumann, Brahms, Sibelius, and Debussy) But I have listened only 2.8 h of LvB in the last 3 months...

[Bulldog]

The current tally:

Beethoven  5
Haydn         3
Bach           2
Janacek      1
Mahler        1
Stravinsky  1
Bartok        1
Brahms       1
Wagner      1
Brian          1
Shost.        1

Janacek, for his fearless, flawed, self-aware humanity

An obvious choice, but a fine one. I, too, love Janacek's music.

[Winky Willy]

Brahms for me.

[Bulldog]

I just realized that Mozart is nowhere to be found.   

[Winky Willy]

That what happens when you ask people to do something so silly as to pick a solo #1! :-)

Mozart. He was with me.
