I am a classical musician, and nothing by Beethoven has ever been my favorite.
I do not categorically presume to impose my informed opinions upon all of humanity and history; neither of you is entitled or empowered to do so either.
So much for independent thinking on an ostensibly conservative forum.
Then you are at best a classical Philistine. Beethoven wrote the music that God whistles on His way to work.
There are superlatives in this world. Grow a pair and take a stand.
What composer’s music is among your favorite?
