Classical era composers
Austrian composers
Composers of the Mozart family
Pianists

The classical era in music, the transition from baroque to romantic music, lasted from around 1750 till 1800. In this period the symphony as a seperate work of art was developed. Another characteristic is the so-called sonata form, a way to structure music. The term classical for this music refers to the ancient Roman and Greek cultures, that were idealised in that era.


Composers that were born in Austria, or gained the Austrian nationality.


Composers with a family relationship to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.


Composers who also play the piano and as such performed their own or other composer's compositions.
