Don

   Oh please isn't it obvious,  this poll is headed for a J.S. Bach vs. Beethoven finale which should please Don for the moment. The final result, much like that other Bach vs. Beethoven thread we had earlier will not be to Don's liking I'm afraid.

I'll just have to deal with the disappointment. ;D

I share your outrage.  What sort of revenge do you recommend?

Can't seem to get rid of Schubert.  Why would anyone still want him on the list?

I don't want him on the list, I was just more interested in getting rid of Dvorak first.

???  Are you for real?

Don, everyone has their own tastes, on whose music they like best, and whose they like the least.

I, and I'm sure many others here, love Schubert's music a lot!

He's my next favorite after Beethoven and Brahms.  So Schubert gets my (+) vote, thank you very much.
