	I think you'll find many on this forum enjoy classical music very much. What a difficult choice you present, and so many other excellent composers missing. If I had to choose only one, it would be Chopin. But it's a bit like asking me if I want my arm or my leg cut off. If you intend to talk about classical music most of the time, though, perhaps you've come to the wrong place? After all, this is a Web site specialising in Progressive Rock. But don't let me put you off; as I say, you'll find plenty here who enjoy claasical music, and I'm sure we would like to know all about your interests in Prog Rock too.

	Its hard to beat Beethoven. Vivaldi and Mozart in a close second.
	"Mister Fripp, your music is quite different than everything else out there. In one word, how would you describe it?" "Progressive.... yeah, that's it..."
