10. Leopold and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
9. Franz and Richard Strauss
8. Sergio and Clarice Assad
7. Alfred and Adrian Brendel
6. Erich and Carlos Kleiber
5. George and David Crumb
4. Michael and Alan Gilbert
3. Johann and his sons Johann II, Eduard and Josef Strauss
2. Long and Nancy Zhou

Johann Sebastian Bach in a portrait by
Elias Gottlob Haussmann, in the public
domain in the United States.

and the number one Classical dad is...




1. Johann Sebastian and CPE, WF, JC, JCF, PDQ et al Bach


No doubt any of these composers/performers cds, dvds, or blue-rays might make a great gift for dad too! How about taking Dad to a concert?
