After Mozart

Are these sentences correct:

1) I like classical music after Mozart.

Meaning: I like the classical music that came after Mozart.

2) I like classical music after 1950.

Meaning: I like the classical music that came after 1950.

3) I don't like classical music in the 21st century.

I don't like the classical music of the 21st century,


Is '1' ambiguous? Can't it mean 'I like classical music in Mozart's style'?


Gratefully,
