Hard to say. Often the response here is "the one I like the best" or "huh?".

For me I'd say most famous is probably either Beethoven or Mozart, in terms of name recognition. But hard to say really.

tchaikovsky

They will have no clue b

Handel

Ricky Martin

Spotify

Bach but I bet most couldn't name one.

Mozart

Justin Bieber

I’m a Vivaldi guy.

The Pavarotti, EVERYONE knows him’! He is awesome

It is not Beethoven. Beethoven was a hack.

Mozart then Bach.

Best hack we've had on those lands of music.

He ask about fame, different than talent I suppose.

Skill wise I resent Mozart for his saccharinity.

I can live with Bach, but, probably embarrassingly, I suggest Scriabin or Rachmaninov.

I think Rachmaninov effectively concluded classical composition and fulfilled its premiss and potential.

Scriabin, while I heard some real drivel supposedly written by him, at his most successful sounds completely beyond, and unbound by conventional implements. I think he went to places that few people ever managed to bring something back from in any discipline.

If you want to talk about 'best' then yes, I love Scriabin and Chopin and Rachmaninov. I never get tired of Etude Op. 8 No. 12. even though it is only 3 minutes long.

Yep, and also yep, that etude with the clumsy title pretty much prompted me to write the latter half of my comment. I also hesitated between Chopin and Rachmaninov. I just liked remembering the later Romantics for a moment as I think they deserve more public recognition.

Mozart

mozart

michael jackson

almost always beethoven

Beethover or Mozart

Tchaikovsky 🫡

Most mentioned / thought of classical composer is Mozart. Individual piece of music would be Beethoven’s 9th symphony, and for classical musician it’s YoYo Ma.

Mozzart

they'll say Taylor Swift

Mozart or Beethoven.

They'll probably say Taylor Swift

beethoven

Bithoven

Shakira

..."get away from me nerd"

John Williams

They'll probably say Jojo Todynho or Tati Quebra Barraco.

Como é Luiza?! 👀
