Yes this has been done before, but who/what is your favourite composer or piece of music and why, and also what instrument you play?
Of course, am including baroque, medievil, classical, romantic, 20th century, and even now contemporary.
It's just for some general feedback, I'm interested in what instrumentalists like what.
As a cellist, I am incredibly fond of Dvorak, his concerto in B minor sweeps the floor with Elgar's backside (IMHO).
Rimsky-Korsakov has wowed me utterly with Capriccio Espangol and Scheherazade.
Going into modern times, I am hugely devoted to Howard Shore's Lord of the Rings soundtrack.
And all the way back into Baroque, my winner is Vivaldi, almost purely on his Four Seasons (but not utterly). Marriage of Figaro and Abduction from the Seraglio overtures by Mozart are another few favourites, but he isn't my favourite composer.
My favorite piece of composer are Schubert, Mozart and Grieg. Some of my favorite musical works include Mozart: Piano Sonata in C major, K 330 and Mozart: The Marriage of Figaro.
