Although some composers (Lully, Offenbach) weren't native to France, they obtained the French nationality later. That's why I've included them as "french composers".

This video is not meant to disparage the works of other composers. There are lots of beautiful pieces that aren't included here, this is just a selection, it's almost impossible to fit them all in one video because of the time limit.
