Greetings.

Perhaps it is due to my misundestanding of the so stated words, but, what is the difference between "famous" and "popular"?

Famous means common proles know about them.
Popular means who is the most played by musicians

Oh I see. In my opinion, the most common composer known to the public is Mozart or Beethoven. Just about anyone knows their name. The most "famous" among musicians is.....rather depends. Probably Chopin.
