A historic composer for Western music, Mozart’s Serenade No.13 is to the classical period what Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons is to the Italian Baroque period.
Since A historic composer for Western music is acting as a modifier, the word next to this modifier shall tell who is a historic composer for Western music, therefore A,B , and C are out

B. Mozart’s Serenade No.13 is to the classical period like
C. Mozart’s Serenade No.13 is to the classical period just as
D. Mozart wrote Serenade No.13 that is to the classical period similar to
E. Mozart wrote Serenade No.13 that is to the classical period what
Between options D and E, correct usage is A is to B what C is to D and that structure is found in option E, therefore E is the correct Answer

My answer is (E). It took me 41 seconds.
Modifier "A historic composer for Western music" dictates that the subject in the main clause should be a person rather than a music work. That rules out (A), (B), and (C).
Between (D) and (E), only (E) correctly uses the construct
A is to B as C is to D
OR
A is to B what C is to D.
So (E) it is.
