There seems to be a lack of post-War 20th century composers here !!!!

Anyone like classical electronic music?

I can recommend you the Italian pianist and composer Ludovico Einaudi! Especially his album Divenire is really atmospheric. Kind of dark, too. =)

I hope I am not the only one in here who has heard of him, 'cause he's much too good for that.

Edit: I'm glad to see he has been mentioned at least once in the thread already. =D

Anyone ever hear of The Moldau by Bedrich Smetana? That is among my all time favorites. I don't love a lot of his stuff but that piece is just incredible. My favorite composers in order if this helps are:

Tchaikovsky
Mozart
Beethoven
Chopin
Brahms
Bach
Handel
Vivaldi
Schubert
Dvorak

The list goes on but those guys are incredible.
