    to questions like this can only be ‘opinion’, as there are no criteria by which to define ‘greatest’. I will bite on this, however, citing the composers whom I feel epitomise their era, had the greatest impact on the music of their time and influenced music that came after them.

    Medieval – Guillaume de Machaut (sometimes spelt ‘Machault’)
    Renaissance (you left this out for some reason) – Orlando di Lasso (Orlandus Lassus)
    Baroque – Johann Sebastian Bach
    Classical – Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
    Romantic – Richard Wagner
    Modern/Contemporary )both words mean the same to me) – Witold Lutosławski
    I would also have to demand an ‘honorable mention’ to those composers who straddled two musical eras and who helped propel music into new directions:

    Medieval to Renaissance – Guillaume Dufay
    Renaissance to Baroque – Claudio Monteverdi
    Baroque to Classical – CPE Bach
    Classical to Romantic – Ludwig van Beethoven
    Romantic to Modern – Claude Debussy

  • I dont know any medieval however in my opinion the Rest are

    Baroque – Vivaldi
    Classical – Mozart and Beethoven
    Romantic – Liszt and Tchaikovsky
    Modern – Satie and Prokofiev

    And im Sorry, but i Dont really know any contemporary

    Renaissance:Palestrina, Nicholas Gombert

    Classical:Mozart, Haydn
    Romantic:Wagner, Beethoven
