are you being pedantic and not including bach because he's, formally, baroque rather than classical?

Shostakovich isn't classical by that definition either. but if that's what he meant, Beethoven Sonata #32 deserves a mention. particularly the arietta

agree to disagree. actually the brandenburgs are probably better than either. "best classical piece" discussions always devolve into this

1st mvt = very good, interesting, different

2nd mvt = massively overrated. nice idea at beginning but fails to develop consistently. tidbit: in his lifetime, this mvt was even more popular than the iconic 1st mvt of his 5th symphony.

3rd mvt = ljl

4th mvt = like a rollercoaster. very well done for a typical last, "dessert" mvt. unfortunately loses its charm after a few listenings, like all desserts
