which classical composer satisfies you.....

216.244.27.185

the most.? My first choice would have to be Prokofief. To me his music satisfies me in so many levels (form, emotion, content etc.) ,. Piano concertos, Violin concertos, Symphonies, ballets, chamber music . Especially the juxtaposition of some more modern musical forms with moving emotional effects. Parts of Romeo and Juliet for example have some very bold powerful segments followed with some incredibably sublimely beautiful moments. The Violin concertos again produce this type of experience to me. Like to hear what composer most satisfys you and why....Thanks.
