well, it's the old desert island question.. there can be only one

anyway, never got into the soviets too much. i do like khachaturian's gayane a bit, never heard spartacus though. only ever heard a couple of shostakovich's symphonies, couple of piano concertos and a couple of ballet suites.. never got into his stuff. kabalevsky.. meh.

i've never made the time to look past le carnival des animaux, which is awesome. i'd probably like saint-saens' other stuff..

do you mean gustav holst? yeah, one of my friends from college is real big into his choral works, so much so that he started a highly acclaimed website about holst (http://www.gustavholst.info/). personally, i love the planets, but the little other work i've heard of holst's hasn't excited me much. the british composers in general are kinda meh to me. maybe with the exception of ralph vaughn williams.. and i like purcell too
