Answer 2

Johann Sebastian Bach, Joseph Haydn, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (he's the best one), George Frederic Handel and Ludwig van Beethoven. There was Gioachino Rossini but he was born in 1792. Franz Schubert was also born late 18th century (31 January 1797). Oh and how could I forget our good old friend Mr. Antonio Vivaldi. He was born 4th March 1678, but he was composing throughout the 1700's.
