[b] Mozart would have ended up doing what Beethoven did - only probably a lot better.

Yes, Certainly Mozart cranked out one master piece after another but none of his symphonies come even close to the brilliance of Beethoven's Symphonies. As for Beethoven's Concerti, These set the benchmark for the fully Romantic Concerti to follow. So no, Beethoven, In my View, is not the next logical step from Mozart. Hummel or Czerny or even more obscure Johann Hall sure - Not Beethoven. It just can't be ... All his hard work had to be greater than all of this !! So let the Poll decide - Beethoven or Mozart !!
