OJECTION!
Why is Grieg not on this list???

Well, Do you really think Grieg has the slightest chance of ever being Crowned the gretest composer ??? Let's have a look at his Genres of Composition - 1 Piano Concerto, 1 Piano Sonata, 1 Symphony - The work was so bad that the composer requested it never be performed !! Hundreds of Miniatures. I agree that he was possibly the most lyrically gifted - after Schubert, Chopin and the Russians........... but in Classical Music - the composer who writes the best melody dosent exactly write the best music !! (Brilliant Examples - Beethoven & Brahms).
Oh and yes .... the selection is totally biased
Come on Beethoven Fans - Mozart seems to be catching up - get voting !!
