Which composer was not an admirer of C.P.E. Bach's work?

  • Beethoven

  • Haydn

  • Mozart

  • Brahms

Answer

Certainly. Brahms, unlike many of his contemporaries, did not hold C.P.E. Bach's music in high regard. While composers like Mozart, Beethoven, and Mendelssohn praised and drew inspiration from C.P.E. Bach's innovative style, Brahms was critical of his music, perceiving it as lacking emotional depth and formal structure.
