Which modern day (20th Century) classical composers do you think deserve to mentioned in the same breath as the composers like Tchiakovsky, Beethoven, Mozart and the like?

I have three:
1. John Williams
2. Aaron Copland
3. George Gershwin

May the Irish hills caress you.
May her lakes and rivers bless you.
May the luck of the Irish enfold you.
May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.

I'm OK for Gershwin for me it's not really classical music but I like him, I would add some more :

Antonin Dvorak
Erik Satie (on of my favourites)
Bela Bartok
Claude Debussy
Gustav Mahler

Here's a selection of composers whose CDs clutter up shelves in my office I also like a number of Celtica's choices!

Prokofiev
Gustav Holst
Orff
Leonard Bernstein cool.gif (OK, cheesey, I know!)
Shostakovitch
Stravinsky
Ralph Vaughn-Williams
Franics Poulenc
Janacek

I know some of them 'straddle' the end of the 1800s, as well as into the 1900s!
