Equally difficult. Beethoven I suppose is my favorite, but that may be due only to the fact that I know him much better than others. I love Bach, Mozart, the few things I've heard by Wagner (always been to lazy to listen to an entire opera of his, but this will soon change as there's going to be a concert in my town next month), Brahms, and, among the modernists, Stravinsky, Shostakovich, Alfred Schnittke, a little Ligeti, and some Penderecki.
