Giulianzo's Plato’s Academy of Florence and the Confraternity of the Magi discussion

Lets talk about composers who were very influential!! And I mean those who aren't well known.

Martín y Soler introduced the waltz to Vienna from Spain and was actually liked better than Mozart in his time!

Well, I think that Gluck is a rather obvious one for opera. He changed the entire purpose of arias in opera from showing off a singer's technique to actually being part of the plot!

True! Mozart did that too, I think. Some arias are really easy to sing but very important :)
