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.

This is a lovely piece. Field's Nocturnes are an easy listen and perfect learning material for the piano

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.

Hell yeah, the Red Priest. He owned that era. He was very violin heavy but it worked. I don't have much of his stuff at all. Just a CD with The Four Seasons concertos. I really should get more. Also I use the browser named after him.

I can't recommend Juditha Triumphans enough. The 2019 Le Concert des Nations recording is very clear and well mixed, definitely something you should go for if you can find it

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.

You must be thinking of Bach, his sonatas and partitas for violin are legendary. One of Germany's finest

I never looked it up until now. Bach yes. Thought it was Mozart cause it has a more.... modern? sound. A bit more quick paced. Wish our modern musicians were as talented.

It's sadly a lost art, certainly in the mainstream. I'm studying music history and composition as a hobby. I can seriously appreciate the pure talent and inspiration of the classical composers, but one can't help but shed a few tears for the degradation of our culture

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.
