Who Are the Master Composers of today? I guess I'm a top 40 classical music fan.
I love Mozart, Beethoven, and Bach. I'm relatively ignorant of other composers. HOWEVER, I know nothing about modern day composers. Are there any genius composers? Any that will stand out and stand the test of time? | |

U really think he has the ability to release something on the scale of the master composers? 
I think he' s brilliant--don't get me wrong. But a Beethoven or Mozart? | |

I guess that means there's still hope for another good star wars movie.  | |

What do you consider "modern"? 20th century?
Igor Stravinsky... Ernst Bloch... John Zorn... Dmitri Shostakovich... Aaron Copeland... John Adams... Samuel Barber... Not sure about Philip Glass...  | |

That's like asking who will be the next Charlie Chaplin. It's not that nobody has the talent. They're now into modern styles of music. | |

I think certain movie score composers like Howard Shore or John Williams are worthy of the title of this thread.  | |

I'm pretty sure Mozart would've been horrified of Zappa too.

Yellow Snow Overture. Mozart, while great, is a bit overplayed, no? | |
