Best books to learn Classical composers, in order
Classical music opens up when reading and listening move together in roughly chronological order. Start with a broad listener's guide that maps the eras and what to listen for, then read focused biographies from Bach and the Baroque through the Classical and Romantic giants, always pairing each with its music. Read the biographies cold, without listening, and it's just dates; sync the reading to the recordings and the lives explain the sound.
