Who wrote music for the piano?

A LOT of people. Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn, McDowell, Liszt, Rachmaninoff, Schubert, Schumann, Faber & Faber, etc...even my teacher, and me myself. As long as someone made a composition of some sort, that person is a composer, and if he/she composes a piece of music for the piano, that person is a composer for the piano. Which means that if you play the piano and create a 10-measure piece, you are still a composer. Perhaps not wide-known, but still a composer.
