PS Looks like our boy Bach is going to win, and I STILL can't believe nobody has voted for Mozart!
MAGA! FAFO!

I would say Stravinsky. But he's not there, so I'll go with Liszt or Tchaikovsky.
I'm not into Mozart or Beethoven or Bach so my bias may be overlooking them. They were probably greater in terms of impact.

Aren't his most exciting works comparably boring? Rite of Spring from Fantasia, with the dinosaurs, is actually an ancient pagan Russian ballet where they go crazy the whole time, maybe like modern dancers.

I didn't know we had this many classical music fans here in the Wild, Wild, West.
That's great to discover!

Oh wow, is my face red! Of course it's spelled Haydn. I must have been over medicated when I did this poll. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. It has now been corrected.
And in voting for Bach, you are in the majority. I voted for my boy Ludwig. Meanwhile I'm so gratified that this post has generated so many responses. I had no idea we had so many classical music aficionados here!

Well he did get two votes.
BTW, did you know that his heart is buried in Holy Cross Church in Warsaw, Poland?
I visited the church when I was there back in 2013.

It was. And recently they exhumed it to do some sort of test. Then they put it back.
Very creepy.

Others you should add:
Vivaldi (Four Seasons: most notably, "Spring")
Pachelbel (Canon: arguably the most famous classical piece of all time)
Debussy
Elgar (Pomp and Circumstance)
Mendelssohn (A Midnight Summer's Dream)
Orf (O Fortuna)
