Come on voters!

I picked:

Ars subtilior because the Chantilly Codex and Ciconia.

Post-Romantic because Mahler.

Impressionism due to Debussy.

Expressionism for Schoenberg and Webern.

"Contemporary" for post-1945 high modernism (Boulez, Stockhausen, Nono, Ligeti et al) their musical progeny (e.g. George Benjamin) and Feldman.

I chose Late renaissance on the understanding that it includes Monteverdi

Florestan

Late Baroque: Vivaldi
Late Classical: Mozart
Early Romantic: Schubert
Post-Romantic: Rachmaninoff
Impressionism: Debussy (piano and chamber music)
"Beauty must appeal to the senses, must provide us with immediate enjoyment, must impress us or insinuate itself into us without any effort on our part. ." — Claude Debussy

Looks like it will be Late Classical vs. Post-Romantic the final poll but I need more voters to confirm or refute this!
