He wrote piano music, solo (with piano accompaniment) pieces for violin and cello. He wrote pieces with orchestral accompaniment for piano, violin, and cello. He wrote chamber music for string quartet and for piano trio (piano, violin and cello). Most of his music is orchestral and operas.
Meredith Willson wrote the lyrics to the Music Man.
John Cage
I know that John Cage wrote music for prepared piano as well as Arvo Part and George Crumb. Henry Cowell wrote music using clusters as well as some string play.
Chopin wrote secular music. All of it is for or at least involves his instrument, the piano. He wrote no sacred music at all.
Tchaikovsky wrote a great deal of solo piano music, and several chamber pieces, including string quartets and the sextet "Souvenir of Florence."
You can find the sheet music for The Last Man by Clint Mansell for piano on Amazon. You can buy this as a single sheet or in the book.
Beethoven composed music in various forms and genres. He wrote five piano concertos and nine symphonies. For solo piano, he wrote 32 piano sonatas, rondos, bagatelles and other miscellaneous works. Chamber music works include violin sonatas, piano trios and string quartets. Beethoven wrote one opera; Fidelio.
Liszt wrote more music for piano than any other instrument, however, he wrote a number of songs (for voice and piano), and syphonic pieces - his symphonic poems, for example - which were scored for full orchestra. I don't think he wrote chamber music for other instruments - string quartet, piano trio, etc.
He mainly made music for the piano and he did write some music for the flute. He also wrote music for the drums also and one more was the saxophone. I think that's how you spell it! :)
He wrote what we call classical music including operas, string quartets, piano sonatas, concertos for different instruments, program music, symphonies, and ballets. That's the type of music he wrote, but the style he wrote in was Romantic.
I believe it was a piece for piano. He went to julliard after ucla (i think) and studied jazz piano.
