Actually, I was going to make this into a silly poll just for fun, but decided not to post it just yet, but apparently this part got through accidentally. Oh well. What is YOUR point, Mr. Xerxes?
Well, I stated that he WAS, and you asked me what my point was! Just returning the favor! Really, this post was supposed to have a poll with several options on it. I guess once you get to the form where you create the poll, the original message is already posted. I thought I had canceled both transactions. Well, who do YOU think is so great, hmmm???

http://www.bach-cantatas.com/ FTW! No Schubert? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! :bugeye: As for arranging them in order, I'm not sure I'd dare ... they all have different strengths and weaknesses. (Ok, and where's Gershwin? Dvorak? Copland? Bizet? Hmm?)
Stoled my line! Oh, and how bout Heino Eller??? Vaughn Williams? Vivaldi? Clementi? No, you're right. It's just too difficult to pick one and say he's the best. Oh, and Mendelssohn?
Oh, and Bach's sons, Wilhelm Friedemann, Carl Philipp Emmanuel (my personal favorite!), Johann Christoph Friedrich, and Johann Christian!!!!
http://www.bach-cantatas.com/ FTW! What's the FTW stand for? I've visited that site more than once, I reckon.
