Can anyonerecommend a modern composer
who's music sounds "classical," either
in a baroque or a romantic sense?
Everything I've heard that's been written
in the last fifty years is either atonal,
amelodic, repetitive (e.g. P. Glass) or
simplistic (J. Williams).  Doesn't anyone
write beautiful, melodic, serious music
anymore?
