Back in the time of classical music, way back before video games and television and credit cards and credit card settlement companies, there were hundreds of composers all over the world but there were three altogether whose own efforts and ingenuity changed the way we look at music, today. These virtuosos , these supermen, these unbelievable maestros of talent not only defined the face of music and the conventions it now upholds, they inspired a large number of modern recording artists today – surprisingly, even a few rappers and hip-hop artists cite the original masters for their success. Without these men, music and everything we know about it might be horribly different. Join us now as we take a look at the magnificent three.

1. Johann Sebastian Bach
Known as a perfectionist when it came to composition and complexity, his legendary pieces are heard by us today and celebrated by all as the crowning achievements of his marvelous career.

2. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
One of the finest pianists to have ever lived, he refined both the concept of composition and musical intrigue very well setting the stage for the musical fundamentals we adhere to this very day.

3. Ludwig van Beethoven
The inventor of Romantic music, Beethoven was possessed by the most mercurial nature that bled into his work creating quick, passionate and unpredictable brilliance.
