Some people really, really like to complicate things.  ::)

Whom do you listen to most often, from the given options?  Sounds like a straight forward question.  No soliloquies about dead or alive composers or whom you are wanting to discover to avoid monotony, blah blah blah required.

Plenty of other threads for that.

It shifts, but for the last few months Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven and Stravinsky in about equal doses.  I wouldn't want to declare one as #1.

Same here but change Stravinsky to either Brahms or Shostakovich, I'd have to think about it. :)

Currently Bach is my #1 frequent listen.

Of the peope listed, I would say I listen to Beethoven and Stravinsky most often (mostly the piano sonatas and string quartets), but they're not the ones I listen to most out of all composers. That distinction these days would really go to Brahms.

Ah, Brahms.

Now that summer is over and I'm feeling half human again, I should begin listening more. As I said on another thread, I am expecting to receive the complete Haydn symphonies any day now, and I think I'd like to make a project of working through the entire set. This is Haydn we're talking about, though, so it won't feel like work.

I think it's a fun poll with a limited range.  Not every poll is obliged to embrace unlimited possibilities.

I love music. Sadly, I'm an audiophile too.

For the sake of the poll, I chose Stravinsky. But the composer I listen to the most is Sibelius.

Bruckner would currently be my choice, though overall it's the Mahler...

Why narrow the selection down so much? iTunes tells me the answer is Janacek, though my gut says it's Beethoven.

Lately, I've been listening to a lot of Shostakobachinsky.
