Unfortunately, I have had to exclude Vaughan Williams in favour of Brahms, who has not only replaced one of England's finest orchestrators, but has taken Vivaldi's ninth place. Leaving Brahms out of my top ten has been eating away at me for some time, so I'm glad to have finally put things right. As for Ron's statement that "JS Bach is the father of the lot", what can I say? He probably does belong at number one, but I suppose I just like Beethoven more. Herr Bach should be glad that he's on the podium and not gazing up in awe at my top ten such as the likes of the now demoted Vaughan Williams (such a shame I've had to limit myself to only ten!)

Whilst I do like Mozart's music very much, Beethoven's is much more evocative. I would put forward any one of Beethoven's symphonies or piano concertos as the pinnacle of all music any day!
