This is a data set of classical composers and their network of influence as originally described by Charles H. Smith et al. in the original Classical Music Navigator site [1]. A small ad-hoc Classical Music Navigator ontology [2] is used to describe influence concepts and the Music Ontology [3] is used to describe composers.
This modest data set contains around 10k triples.
In this data set you find statements like the following:
