This is a simple comparison of romantic german Meyerbeer and post-romantic french Fauré. All operas by Meyerbeer are in french and only one piano/clarinet song is in german language.

Meyerbeer sounds simpler, short melody, orchestral effects, repetitive, simple harmonic.

Fauré sounds more complex, serious.

Only Fauré has piano in this game (Meyerbeer has only one piano/clarinet song).

Only Meyerbeer has clarinet quintet, organ in this game. (Fauré, Meyerbeer)

Music of these two composers sounds very close to me.

Only Meyerbeer has clarinet quintet in this game.

Only Massenet has violin+orchestra.

This island seems very difficult to me. I would be very glad to hear better suggestions. (Massenet, Meyerbeer)
