What piano composer are you closest to???

[lisztisforkids]

This is a different question than whats your favorite composer. I am talking about like what music describes you.

For me, its Brahms. For some reason I fell really compeled and close to much of his music. Especially the Intermitzi.

[pianistimo]

intermitzi?  intermezzi?  i don't really know.  guess that spell check will work it all out.

i can obtain satisfaction by going through all the possible feelings there might be in my subconcious at the time by play several beethoven sonatas.  if i feel really sprightly, mozart.  he makes the lightest use of the fingers and is a great warm-up physically and mentally.

[presto agitato]

Beethoven for sure

[spitz]

I feel closet to Beethoven

BEETHOVEN RULES!!!!!

[BoliverAllmon]

Shostakovich

[stevie]

Alkan, no doubt.

[ryguillian]

Despite the fact that I've heard almost none of it, I'd have to say the music of Michael Finnissy describes me: eccelectic, extremely demanding, confusing, uncompromising, and possibly genius but not superficially accessible.

Brahms
Beethoven (distant 2nd)
Liszt (distant 3rd)

[chopiabin]

Chopin, then Scriabin, then Beethoven

[jehangircama]

Chopin and Beethoven (depends on my mood)

[gilad]

Robert Schumann and debussy

[phil13]

Chopin first, then Scriabin (early stuff), Grieg, and Mozart.

Phil

[cfortunato]

It well might be Beethoven.  Others I feel "close" to are Schumann, Grieg and Mussorgsky.

BEETHOVEN!!!

i feel closest to chopin, although brahms intermezzi were fitting me very well too. on the other hand, i feel very close to tchaikovsky (recently discovered it) . sometimes ,like today, is rachmaninoff, just i haven't played much of his music (except etudes tableaux) but i have very clear idea how i'd like it to sound one day when i achieve techical ability to play his concertos

[gonzalo]

WAGNER!

[Tash]

well i decided that if i could marry any composer it'd be beethoven. however i have some connection with ross edwards, which could possibly be because he was born on my birthday, and is australian, and i really like his music. like it's not my fave, but there's an element to it that appeals to my 'inner child'...

[bearzinthehood]

Yep, Beethoven.

Which composer best represents my musical philosophy, intention and spirit ? It would have to be Ives, Delius or Milhaud. Can't make up my mind.
