   I was making a joke because people like to arbitrarily go up in arms regarding the term classical even though its popularly used meaning works just fine as a definition and it actually becomes more cumbersome to discuss classical music when you adhere to the strict definition of the term. 
Good enough reason?

	Jokes tend not to come with explanations. I guess you have no sense of humor, but I don't mind explaining so it's okay.

	Leos Janácek Frederic Chopin Maurice Ravel Claude Debussy Robert Schumann Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov Eric Satie Bela Bartók Georg Friedrich Händel Dmitri Shostakovich Thats ten. A lot is left out.. I'm thinking of Cesar Franck, but I need to listen more to him. Guillaume Dufay (early medieval choral stuff) and Bohuslav Martinu (czech composer). Also, Liszt. And..Beethoven...I'd like to hear more Beethoven.
