That would be just Classical music.

Napoleon listened to Classical you dip

Napoleon primarily enjoyed
Italian vocal music, especially when sung by beautiful women, and had a strong preference for the composer Giovanni Paisiello. He also appreciated French revolutionary songs like "La Marseillaise," older operas, and sacred music, but found much German and French opera to be too "academic" or "baroque".
Favorite genres and composers

Italian vocal music: Napoleon famously stated, "Italian singing has a charm which is always new". He specifically enjoyed Italian operas and the works of composers like Paisiello.
Giovanni Paisiello: Paisiello was Napoleon's favorite composer, and he brought him to Paris to compose for his private orchestra.
French revolutionary music: He was a fan of songs like "La Marseillaise" and other revolutionary hymns and cantatas.
Old operas: Napoleon enjoyed older operas, including some of his favorite arias from works like Nina, o sia la pazza per amore and the finale from Il Re Teodoro.
Sacred music: He commissioned sacred compositions for his birthday.

Disliked genres

French and German opera: Napoleon often criticized French and German composers for being too "academic" and lacking grace and melody, as noted in a comment made to composer Étienne-Nicolas Méhul.
Mozart: While he acknowledged that Mozart's music was "fort bonne," he found the singing in Don Giovanni to be too "baroque," according to this article on napoleon.org.

Other details

Beethoven: He was a contemporary of Beethoven and inspired Beethoven's Eroica Symphony, though the dedication was later rescinded when Napoleon became Emperor.
Musical ability: Napoleon was not a musician himself and is said to have been unable to carry a tune, but he was deeply affected by music and attended the opera frequently
