I could very well live with the current list of top 5 composers:

Haydn 72
Mahler 58
Mozart 56
Brahms 52
Bach 44

Although I'd replace Mahler with Beethoven or Bruckner, but you can't have everything  :P

Roger that: replace Mahler with Beethoven and Bach with Dvorak and I'm good to go.  :)

I would probably replace Haydn and Brahms with Beethoven and Stravinsky (or Schoenberg—definitely changeable depending on the day). Not that I don't like Haydn and Brahms, I just don't like them that much.

Shuffle them around and replace Haydn and Brahms with Schoenberg and Debussy, and I'd be very happy with such a list.

Yes, and I've got the axe that George Washington used to chop down the cherry tree, although I had to replace the head twice and the handle three times...

Jessop in reply #142 gave Schoenberg 2 points but lowered the total by 1 point.  That's a 3 point reduction, so please give Schoenberg 44 points - thanks.

:D  Well, eventually it will all come out right... is there a place to fit Tchaikovsky and Mendelssohn into that scheme? ;)

My mistake! I was probably confused because a couple of other composers were on 36.
