Memes aside Im really liking Wagners stuff. Chopin and debussy are pretty good too. They are pretty mainstream though I admit. Feel free to post whatever even if its modern.

I don't actually like classical music. It's too high-pitched and hurts my ears.
Adrian Smith
I really enjoy Tchaikovsky and Profokiev. Chopin is nice for calming down too
I'm not so into it to know some non-mainstream ones though
Charles Reed
Edward Grieg, Camille Saint Saens, Antonin Dvorak... It's probably not too difficult to guess what other genres I like.
Ethan Phillips
Chopin and Elgar are my go-to guys.
Jeremiah Nguyen
Yeah, Chopin's amazing. You can't not like his music.
Rachmaninoff is pretty terrific as well, and I don't think enough people get into his work.
Dylan Perez
i love debussy
Wyatt Robinson
The only composer I knew of is Johann Johannson. I liek movies
William Turner
Tchaikovsky overall, Borodin for epicness. Debussy rarely has a good interpretation, but when he does he's comfy. Mahler for symphonies, definitely. Unironically Max Richter from the modern ones.

I'm more of an early music kind of person. Renaissance composers like Carlo Gesualdo and Vicente Lusitano really hit me in the face. As for Baroque I enjoy the early stage of the period like Fontana, Castello and Monteverdi. For more modern stuff, I go with Debussy because it's soothing I guess and Steve Reich or any minimalist composer because it has a therapeutic side to it.

i really like vivaldi, i find his music beatifull and his life inspiring, i wish i could be a good person like him
Leo Williams
Is there any music more emotionally engaging than Rachmaninoff's? I find that in the opening of his second piano concerto, the strings drag you inside, kicking and screaming, into the maelstrom that is Rachmaninoff's emotional universe.

Can't stop listening to this, it fills me with energy.
Even went so far to seek out a CD copy of this recording because I love it so much.
Khachaturian is definitely one of my favourites.

Strauss, Vivaldi, and Tartini are some of my favorites. Blue Danube Waltz by Strauss is one of my all time favorite peices, along with Tartini's 'Devil's Trill Sonata', such an absolutely beautiful violin peice.
Wyatt Price
Telemann, Stravinsky and Weber are probably some of my favorites. The first and last for their concertos/sonatas and the middle for his use of "sound effects" to illustrate stories like Firebird and the Rite of Spring
Kayden Sanchez
I like Dvorak and Brahms, plus if you see a concert for one of them the other always winds up being played too.
There are a lot of people who listen to anime or movie soundtracks that are instrumental, caught some guy listening to Space Brothers OST at uni the other day
