Sheesh! Classical composers is a long, long list. There is a modern composer that I really like, though. You can find him on Fur Affinity, username is Foxamoore. He has an astoundingly broad repertoire. As a basic intro I recommend "The Piano", which is just him noodling around on the piano, pure improvisation. There is a bit of post-production, some percussion and minimal orchestration added. It's impressive, for improv.
An objective definition of "Political Correctness":

"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority, and
rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the
proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

I can go there with you, saw a couple of concerts from them.

Classical i dont have a favourite composer but there is a lot of works that i realy like but they are realy mood dependend.

A bit more modern:
Gershwin - Rhapsody In Blue (Orriginal Jazz Band Version)

And the film music from Hans Zimmer.

Me personally i think the level of genius is tied between Mozart and Beethoven. That and they were just awesome.

Santana... Favorite musical artist anyways which is close enough for me.

I'm too lazy to look up whether he actually wrote his own stuff(I think he did but others don't so I can't be 100% sure without more work than I'm willing to do)

This should have been included from the beginning
My favorite Song: Into the Night

not that I don't like other/older stuff, but I guess I'm a fan of last century's stuff... mostly.

Always remember rap has that silent 'C'!
bored and lazy... it's more fun to talk on gaia...
