The Greatest Music Ever Written

The largest poll taken concerning classical music is the annual Classic FM Hall of Fame. Every January the British radio station asks its listeners to write in their favorite three pieces of music. The thousands of votes are tallied and revealed every spring. This would seem to be a debate-ending list. One could settle the age old argument of whose music is best by simply looking at the ranking. However, every year the votes are very different, and I believe this shows how subjective this undertaking truly is. Is there a “best” piece of music or a “best” composer? Check out the top ten compositions from the 2016 Classic FM Hall of Fame from your local library, and let us know what some of your favorite works are in the comments section.
