I was starting to get ireful, but I'm awake too early today for my temperament so it took me a moment to remember that classical doesn't include, but succeeds, baroque.

I came late to an appreciation of these forms because I tended, as one o' them rotten kids, to loathe anything I was instructed to admire. But now I feel great pity for those who deprive themselves of Bach and Mozart, and the composers you list above. It's to remain always small and to deny oneself the only way, really, we get to hear the Divine.
