I love that so many are into classical
Vivaldi is my all time favorite composer! The best IMHO The Baroque period is very special

Concerto for two Violins in A minor ~Vivaldi

@AuntHen
My love for the works of Beethoven and Mozart aside, the Baroque Era is my favorite.
Bach and Vivaldi round-out my four favorite composers, overall.

Ahh, I am reverse of you. Classical Era is my second fave with Mozart and Beethoven coming in 3rd and 4th. Vivaldi and Bach are just heavenly for me and also very similar. From what I have read Bach very much admired Vivaldi and possibly imitated or copied him somewhat.

Jules Massenet / Thais / Meditation

Oh, I wasn't ranking the composers in that post. My ranking of the four is mixed by era.

Beethoven
Bach
Vivaldi
Mozart

It took me a long time (years) to arrive at that order, because it's painful. I would actually rather put Bach and Vivaldi on equal footing, but then it hurts to rank them under anybody, even Beethoven, as highly in regard as I hold him. And how do you say Mozart is anything less than number 1 in a group, much less number 4, without the fabric of the universe tearing?
In truth, they were all four incomparable geniuses, in my mind and heart.

Classical Era is my second fave, behind Baroque.
