It's changed again, I'm now mostly listening to Brahms, Beethoven, Bach, and Grieg.

Aaron Copland is really, REALLY high up on the list of my favorites. I think it's unfair to compare composers in different time periods though. SO,
Baroque: Vivaldi
Classical: Haydn
Romantic: Brahms
20th Century: Copland!

It depends entirely on how I'm feeling, besides which, although I do for example adore Beethoven, I don't adore everything he wrote.

Today, I'm listening to lots of Lizst. It is delicious - some of the best, most absurdly difficult and astoundingly brilliant piano music ever written. He really knew what the piano was supposed to do.

I was lucky enough to sing in Ennio Morricone's premier American concert at Radio City and the General UN! Even shook his hand, though unlikely he remembers me. He was so grumpy, actually, not a very pleasant man, though it was amusing to see him argue with the orchestra in Italian.

But right now? Favorite composer would probably be Gabriel Faure (obsessed with the requiem and Cantique de Jean Racine).
