Contemporary Classical Composers - new discoveries


I’ll start with my most recent discovery…Valentin Silvestrov. I’ve been going thru some of this Ukrainian composer’s work and I have to say I’m impressed.
Highly recommend to check out the following albums a starting point…


What are some of your favorites?

By the way, thanks for the Joey De Francesco recommendation... 😊

 

My first exposure to Michael Nyman was from movie score

"The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover" by Peter Greenaway.

That was one of the most brutal movies I've ever seen.
