The Eight Composers you couldn't Live Without. 8 only, no additions,no other rules

[Beef Oven!]

And, so far, only two of us for Purcell? I find that rather odd.

Two is even, surely?

What's odd, is that MrGG's list nearly contained some music

[Beef Oven!]

What isn't odd, is that maybe only one person has stuck to the rubric Par for the course in here - it's like herding cats!

Bach
Purcell
Mozart
Schubert
Handel
Mahler
Britten
and probably Tchaikovsky

[BBMmk2]

I forgot Brahms! I don't listen to much Dvorak, either or many of Liszt's works? Much as I do like them. Schumann, I am gradually liking his orchestral music, through JEG's cycle, especially that tour de force performance of Overture, Scherzo and Finale! Goodness! Mozart a definite no no still, except for a very works, and done by particular people.

[antongould]

As I may, or indeed may not, have the privilege of being appointed bean counter .....it would seem from the OP's own post that Bach and Beethoven are not the Bible and Willie S of this DID...so rules is, as much as they ever are, rules

It was a partnership of equals.

Or, " I don't know", as some people put it.

They reused that concept in "Earn enough for us", in time honoured tradition. If its good enough for JSB.....

[Eine Alpensinfonie]

Beethoven
Elgar
Mozart
Puccini
Strauss, R.
Tchaikovsky
Vaughan Williams
Wagner

If I could only choose one, it would be Elgar.
