List Of Composers Sorted by Nationality
The term "nationality" is used rather loosely here, and there is a great deal of ambiguity in some assignments. The categorizations are generally based on the nation of origin and/or most prominent influence during the adolescent years of the composer. National boundaries have changed over the last four centuries, sometimes drastically, and in some cases, this necessitates the use of nationalities which may not exist today. Also, in making the classifications, it is entirely possible for a composer who lived most of his life in a certain nation to be considered not of that nationality. A good example of this ambiguity is Handel who lived the majority of his life in England, and is arguably one of the foremost English composers of his day, however, for the purposes of this list, he is listed as being of German nationality as this is the nation of his birth and the nation where his style was predominately formed. For a more detailed description of the influence of geographic/cultural/ethnic background on a certain composer's style, please seek out a detailed biography of that composer.
