Which composers do you associate with which GMG members?

[Que]

Harry - Any ballet or operetta composer.  *

Even though most people may associate Harry with Tchaikovsky, I have found it odd that I cannot remember one time where Harry actually listed a Tchaikovsky piece he was listening to in the "What are you listening to?" thread!?

* Or any composer who has released anything on the CPO label. 

Must be the beard... 

Now I come to think of it, I don't listen to Brahms that often anymore.... 
I did when I joined the forum, though....

Time for a new avatar?

That is true but I remember him stating that Tchaikovsky is his soulmate composer.

Actually, I've been wondering for years why your avatar is Brahms, because you seem to never listen to his music.

Steve Ridgway: Xenakis

Oh yes, I found a load of Xenakis downloads last year and enjoyed them a lot more than I expected to.

Also: Charles Tessier, since you have so many fields of interest, including the music of his time, and have some French connections.

Btw, I have a Dumestre recording, Carnets de Voyage, taking in a music from many areas, through Tessier's approach.

French Baroque it is....

Ah, Le Roi Soleil. Nice choice. Although I have to say, I did like the Brahms pic, no matter how inappropriate to the user.

I'm really not too familiar with your own listening habits and what composers you favor and the same goes for Pohjola's Daughter.

I would think Pohjola fairly obvious, unless she changes her screen name to Tapiola.

I have been correctly (above) linked with Beethoven, though I'd also take Shakespeare if he were a composer.

The member Pohjola's Daughter is a woman. One of the rarer, regular women members that posts around here.

I am probably associated with any composer or none, as I seem to listen to the widest possible range (sans mediaeval period).

I associate you with Havergal Brian the most. Ditto J.Z. Herrenberg.

I associate you with Mahler but I could've gone with Strauss.

[springrite]

I guess Mahler, Brian and Feldman are the three most obvious ones for me, maybe Carter as well.
