10.23.10 | 4 and 5 aren't that modern really. This is such a huge area, there are hundreds of lesser known composers who are never mentioned who did good stuff. I second the Feldman piece mentioned above, which is from 1971. |

10.24.10 | Jonsi isn't really classical. His new album is awesome, but it's not strictly classical. |
Urinetrouble
10.24.10 | torsofuck=erotic diarrhea fantasy. beatiful compositions of sharp melodies, wondrously defined notes, and soothing piano playing |
couldwinarabbit
10.24.10 | almost no classical music gets made anymore. it's almost all romantic |

10.24.10 | This is so intellectually above me, that I dropped something on the ground. Don't worry, I picked it back up and ate it anyways. |

10.24.10 | I heard a bit of Goldmund, not sure I'd recommend it, probably more new age or something as well.
And I don't think all classical music now is simply romantic, there's quite a lot in the modernist style mixed in there as well. For example Hans Abrahamsen. |
starry
10.24.10 | Not sure about Max Richter, listened to a bit and kind of sounded towards New Age music in parts. |
