Perhaps the evil god of classical music Cancrizans, instead of eliminating all but one typical work per composer, would let us get rid of three non-essential names entirely and keep all the rest. Here's my selection, and I can't wait to see yours. Just remember: at least one of your three has to come from the meat and potatoes "classical" period--say, 1650-1900. The rest is up to you, but they should all be names that matter (somehow, to someone).
