Johann Sebastian Bach has always been my favourite composer and musician...

I regularly play his various pieces on my Hammond Drawbar Organ, and Piano...and acoustic Guitars...;)...!

Got tortured with classical music for eight years in school, so don't expect any warm words about it from me.

Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky

Mainly because he did the music for most of the ballet productions my Daughter danced in.

The next day. "The Sun"'s front page.

"Old man choked with piano keys"


Do we want that? No?

(Then bugger off with anything that doesn't have an e-guitar in it.)

Right-Oh...

How about a rendering of Pachebel's Cannon in D, played on my Fender Stratocaster electric guitar...?

...any better...?

Or, maybe, Jimi Hendrix's "Hey Joe"

..better still...?

(We will avoid the "Star Spangled Banner", for obvious reasons.... ;)...)

Of a small collection, I would say my favorite is Beethoven's 5 piano concerto "The Emperor""

Bach is techincally advanced stuff

Dimitri Shostakivich is also one of my favourites... his music could be put under most WW2 footage whitout any cutting

Bach's music is just complicated. i tried to compose something that is close to his music but i never got it. I love his Brandenburg Concertos and Orchestral Suites. ;D ;D
