I kinda only like Beethoven and later. I really hate all that arpeggiated clavichord shit. My favorite era is the Romantic era.

Stravinsky is probably my favorite and my favorite song of his is Naissance d'Apollon.

You should try Sviridov!

Soviet-era classical music hits different..

Besides the people you listed, I like Tchaiovsky, Shastakovich , Chopin ( I like his piece which is called funeral march a lot ! As I know it was played in Brezhnev's funeral )

I'll give him a look! I used to listen to Shostakovich a lot too

Apollo is honesty pretty underrated when it comes to Stravinsky, really pretty much all of his stuff after the early ballets is underrated

It's all the stuff he is more known for is more "sound-trackish" and I guess he is the progenitor of soundtrack music because he was making it before movies had soundtracks, but I'll always think of that song as the dinosaur song from Fantasia. So he is more known for that less melodic, more soundtrackish music but I think Naissance d'Apollon is the best melodic theme I've heard by him. Like his Ode to Joy.

You don't normally really think of Stravinsky as a melodic composer - normally, you think of him as being all about rhythm and harmony, almost proto-minimalist with how he kind of works with little cut-and-pasted "bits" of melody, but he was capable of banging out a tune when it called for it, although it's still always refracted through that sort of same chopped-and-screwed affect his music always has
