German composer Ludwig van Beethoven is considered the greatest symphonist of all time. He only composed nine symphonies in his lifetime.
Orchestral symphonies
Beethoven's major repertoire is piano music, followed by string quartets and symphonies. His symphonies, however, are probably his best-known works.
Yes, Beethoven was a late Classical and early Romantic composer from Germany, known especially for his symphonies.
Chopin No, no!! Rachmaninov was the greatest pianist of his time (though no greater as such than Chopin) but he was the greater showman.
His lieder and art songs are considered Romantic but his symphonies are still mainly in the Classical style. Since he is not purely Classical, many musical scholars consider him to be Romantic and therefore excluded from the 1st Viennese School (comprised of Classical composers Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven)
