If you're ever heard Marriage of Figaro, Emperor Joseph II allegedly told Mozart about it that it had "too many notes". Mozart liked to pack the music full of action. He's a favorite. I'm not a serious Bach fan. I love classical (I played flute in high school and this one time, at band camp... j/k) and I'd have to say my favorites are Debussy (he's a bit more contemporary), Mozart, and Rachmaninoff. Rachmaninoff has some serious darkness in his music, if you are into that sort of thing. Debussy has a piece called Arabesque No. 1 for flute and harp that I have on every electronic music playing thing in my life. It's lovely and soothing and I listen to it often.
