Philip Glass
Philip Glass is a contemporary (b. 1937) American minimalist composer (he rejects this term). He composed operas, theatre works, ten symphonies, concertos, chamber music and film scores, such as the magnificent A Brief History of Time for Errol Morris's documentary. You can play it here to set yourself in the mood:

- Mad Rush, one of my favourite classical compositions.
- Les Enfants Terribles, for which he composed a three-pianos opera.
- Itaipu, a cantata in Guarani.
