Another case where considering my listening for the past four weeks made for ease of selection:

Debussy, Nielsen, Rakhmaninov, Sibelius & Vaughan Williams (Schoenberg a near sixth here, as Brahms was for the other time-frame)

Debussy the most here. Strauss (mainly for his beautiful songs), Holst (the Planets but also his modest & refined chamber music), Schoenberg & Satie.
