The 19th-century classical music composers (1800-1850) North America
Cervantes or Foster? Stravinsky or Moreau Gottschalk? It is difficult for inquiring minds to tackle such abundant fields as classical music and opera, covering 10 centuries of history: there are thousands of composers. Making a selection of musicians, such as a “top 10” for example, is a difficult and subjective exercise. A musical selection is often the expression of personal preferences or artistic opinions, very interesting but also very different according to critics or musicologists, or simply influenced by the context: will an English composer not be instinctively privileged by an English critic?
For example: in France, Charles Gounod, a 19th century French composer, is more easily mentioned than the Norwegian Edvard Grieg, who is more recognized in the world.
Timeline of classical music composers, between 1800 and 1850 in North America
Whoever wants to discover classical music or opera does not always have an experienced music lover, an expert or an educator at his or her side to support and guide him or her in these fields. So : Cervantes (cuban pianist and composer) or Foster (American songwriter (1826-1864)) ? Iradier (Spanish composer from Basque Country) or Peralta (Mexican operatic soprano (1845-1883)) ? However, the knowledge available about musicians is enormous. It was processed to select the 10, 25, 50... most popular composers around the world, for those living or having lived en North America, between 1800 and 1850. And this objectively, and for the first time (soclassiq exclusivity).

Summarizing to 10 musician names such a wide and diverse field may seem extreme or too simplistic for those who know classical music and lyrical art well, for those who can easily name 50 or more classical music composers. Varney, Rogers, Da Ponte, Satter, Albani, Bull, Buck...
