I have 2 in top 3 and 4 in top 5. Given the results, this is surely a historical day which more than compensates for Schubert's coming last.

GIven the great span of time covered by "classical music", I think this list is representative of pretty much all but the most modern and the oldest. Interesting result. On behalf of Haydn, thank you all kindly.   0:)

Yes, a fine list of composers active during the 250 years from 1725 to 1975, albeit with a pretty heavy emphasis on symphonists and German speakers.

Hasn't this been a GMG trademark since forever?  :laugh:

Two out of the first three, though, have a very large body of chamber and vocal / operatic music in their oeuvre, and their music is more cosmopolitan than "Germanic". I'd say the balance is more than redressed.

I was awake this morning at around 2:30 and came here to place what I was sure to be my final vote - only to see that the game had ended shortly before: Ravel beating out Debussy by one vote for the 10th slot.

Oh well.  It was fun, and a decent list.

Thanks, Sammy.
