What is your favourite composition by each composer? I made a list of 60 of the most popular composers and my personal favourite work by each. Feel free to add composers to your own list that I'm not as familiar with or subtract ones you aren't. (I'm not very familiar with much after 1960ish so that's why my list doesn't go that far)
