ok, bach was the father, mozart did so much and so did beethoven... but to me the greatest is the one who actually discovered "a view" in music, poems, lieders... that one would be Schubert.. who by the way died when he was 31 years old... and didn´t start that early compared to mozart... and he did so much for the development of the song, and he also influenced Liszt so much to the point of writing his symphonic poems, the "view" in music, the sight of art in music, thanks to that, mahler came to the world to give us not poems, or music based on novels, books or poems, but from nature... mahler heard the music from the world, what god actually gave him... so if mahler was on that list, you would know really who I voted for
