Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was a prodigiously talented musician known for his captivating compositions and performances. From his famous last three symphonies, including Symphony No. 39 in E-flat Major, Symphony No. 40 in G Minor, and Symphony No. 41 in C Major (Jupiter Symphony), which he completed in just six weeks during the summer of 1788, to his celebrated operas like The Marriage of Figaro and Don Giovanni, Mozart solidified his reputation as a master composer.

Johann Sebastian Bach, hailed from a renowned lineage of musicians. His compositions, such as the iconic Toccata and Fugue in D minor, established him as a legendary Western composer. Bach's influential works encompass the Mass in B Minor, Brandenburg Concertos, and The Well-Tempered Clavier, showcasing his genius and enduring influence.

Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy, born Jakob Ludwig Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy, was a renowned pianist, composer, and conductor. During the 19th century, Mendelssohn established himself as a significant figure in Romantic composition. His recognizable Overture to a Midsummer Night's Dream emerged in 1826, and the following year, Mendelssohn presented his opera, The Marriage of the Camacho, the only one of his operas performed publicly during his lifetime.

Ludwig van Beethoven, the iconic creative genius, defied convention and physical limitations to push the boundaries of form and expression in his art. His "heroic" period saw the creation of some of his most celebrated works, including the powerful third symphony, Eroica. Symphony No. 5, with its unforgettable opening motif, and Symphony No. 7, renowned for its energy and optimism, further exemplify Beethoven's genius. Additionally, his compositions from this period include the beloved Moonlight Sonata, symphonies No. 6 and 9 (featuring the uplifting Ode to Joy), and the monumental Catholic mass, the Missa Solemnis.

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Russia's most famous composer, is celebrated as one of the greatest Romantic composers. His portfolio encompasses six magnificent symphonies, a renowned Violin Concerto, and two Piano Concertos. Notably, Tchaikovsky created enchanting ballet scores for Swan Lake, The Nutcracker, and Sleeping Beauty. Swan Lake, in particular, stands as the most frequently performed ballet in the world.
