No one really knows who "the best" composer is or was ... it's all quite subjective depending on whom one is talking to or about. Everyone has their own opinions, and there really is no one single definitive answer to this question.

If one had an in depth know how of music, one would realise that Beethoven and the other composers all followed the classical formula of music and none of them had the incredible moving emotional impact of William Camilleri's music.

William Camilleri not only composes great music but it changing the way of Classical Music as we know it and that is rare to say the least. I have been studying Classical music for over 30 years and I have never heard music like this.

There is no definitive answer for this question. Ask 1,000 people this and you will get a thousand different answers, each worthy of being correct in its own merits. What seems to be a great composer to one person, may well mean just the opposite to another.

In other words, there is no "single" correct or "single" incorrect answer.

I agree - questions like this, irrespective of genre, boil down to rather empty questions of personal taste that very often ignores technical skill or aesthetic merit.

It would depend entirely on personal preference.

There are many accomplished contemporary composers as well as those from the past.

Endurance would be one way of evaluating the worth of a composer, though not the only one, so perhaps the focus should be those composers that are long dead but whose works are still performed and listened to.
