My favourite period would have to be Baroque. Where composers started to enrich the sound of the instruments of the Renaissance period into a true orchestra.

The title of best composer of the Baroque period has to go to Vivaldi. You can listen to any of his work and immediately feel yourself uplifted. Personal favourite would be Per la Solennita di S. Lorenzo, the opening to Juditha Triumphans.

John Field from the Romantic era. Irish guy that invented the nocturne, a lyrical, introspective piano form that got used by Chopin a lot. Nocturne No. 5 in B-flat major is a great example of his work. Subtle,with a bit of Irish folksy flavor but not too melancholic.

Sometimes after work, I'll put him on while cooking dinner. It's always a great brain relaxer.

As someone who loves classical I'm struggling to answer this. Mostly because I don't know who/what I'm listening to most of the time. The partita no 2 for violin by who knows done in whatever era is what is on my repeat right now though. Listz's la campenela as well thanks to a YouTube channel. Beethoven's 6 and 9th always.

Dvorak by far, new world symphony, 4th movement is peak

There's no question: The Baroque period, and JS Bach. His output was enormous. I've listened to a lot of his music, but I know I haven't heard all of it.

I like Holst even though many have shit to talk, I wish we still made music that good and it's almost within living memory
