Is this meant to be listened to in order?

Not particularly.

To be honest, I initially was just going to dump a gigantic list of links to composers I thought people should give a listen to, but I figured just putting a big list was rather useless, and then had trouble figuring out how to best layout the list, and just decided that I was going to have to make multiple parts based off some manner of separation and went with composers by nationality, and even then despite the positive feedback I feel I should have made some better means of organization of this all. Perhaps chronologically and by nationality could work.

This really was a kind of brain-dump of composers I liked created in the span of two days. It's got its biases (I don't like the romantic and classical eras all that much, for example) and blindspots and rough edges. The next time with Russian composers will be better crafted.
