I was going to steal this table, but Lynn stole it first. No matter. I’ll fill my own values in anyway:
| Handel | Highly Cool |
| Vivaldi | Highly Boring |
| Bach | One of the Titans |
| Johann Josef Fux | Who? |
| Haydn | OK |
| Mozart | One of the Titans |
| Beethoven | One of the Titans |
| Schubert | Highly cool |
| Mendelssohn | Fairly cool |
| Berlioz | THE Titan |
| Schumann | Highly cool |
| Brahms | One of the Titans |
| Wagner | The OTHER Titan |
| Verdi | Highly cool |
| Rachmaninoff | My heart melts |
| Sibelius | Meh. |
| Stravinsky | Pretty cool |
| Schönberg | OK until he went the “Key signatures optional” route |
| Ravel | Bolero? Unimaginably bad. Everything else? Quite cool. |
| Poulenc | Meh. |
| Havergal Brian | No idea. |
| Messiaen | On the basis of Turangalila, highly cool |
| Boulez | No idea |
| A bunch of living composers I’m too lazy to mention |
Film composers? Highly cool. |
| Another bunch of living composers I’m too cowardly to mention |
Some cool, some not. Or something like that. |
| Any University of Michigan composer | Alma Mater of Tom Brady? The place must be destroyed. |
| Any Ohio State composer | No idea on composers, but hey, thanks for putting Willis McGahee so far down in the draft! |
The point? No point, really.
