It seems very odd to me that hardly anyone has mentioned Chopin. It seems to me that the Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2 in Eb major is an incredibly beautiful piece of music.

Of course there is no such thing as "the greatest musical work of all time", but I happened to recently be thinking that this must be a top candidate. It's interesting that some of those like Mozart and Chopin who are considered to have have written astonishingly beautiful music were also child prodigies.

I have to agree with you on Chopin. All the Nocturnes are just fantastic!
