These are both great composers but there are way more! They both did great things but many other composers have just as much impact as they did. Just a few that come to mind are the following.
1. Ravel - Probably the best orcehstrator of all time.
2. Bartok - well this is obvious
3. John Corigliano - Ghost of Versailles - that's all you need to hear ^_^
4. Walter Piston - Orchestration and Melodic material
5. Hindemith - Uhhh Sonata's for everyone ^_^
6. Penderecki - Orchestra and Choir, as well as timbre
7. John Adams - Rhythm and suspense.
8. Higdon - Concerto writing is brilliant
9. Zwilich - Concerto writing is brilliant as well
10. George Crumb - Timbre and color
12. Shostakovitch - 15 Symphonies and 15 Quartets of sheer brutality.
13. Ligeti - Film Score and the 3 string quartets.
14. Lutoslawski - Concerto for orchestra and an awesome string quartet
15. Kancheli - a must listen. Symphony no. 5 and Styx
16. Gubaidulina - Viola concerto and she has a great Accordion solo. Chamber Music
17. Webern - String Quartets
18. Bloch - Suite 1919 for solo Viola, and his symphony in C# ( could be wrong on key)
19. Scriabin - Russian composer that is forgotten often. toned poems
20. Rouse - Large orchestral works, heavy emotion.
21. Vivier - Lonely Child, Ring modulation.
22. Schnittke - Viola Concerto, Concerto Grosso, and other chamber works (trio sonatas)
23. Messiaen - Formal structure in his music is mind blowing
24. Berg - Violin Concerto
25. Ives - Symphonies
26. Prokofiev - Piano Concertos and Symphonies, really good string quartet
27. Walton - Violin and Viola Concertos, also a good String Quartet
28. Elgar - Cello Concerto and Piano Quintet
29. Dutilleux - String Quartet
30. Stockhausen - Stimmung
31. Takemitsu - gestural composer (to my ears) great guitar and flute stuff. He had a great ear for orchestral music. and a bomb Viola concerto A String around autumn.
32. Elliot Carter- Enough said
33. Bernstein - he must be on the list
34. Varese - Arcana
35. Joan Tower - she is doing some great stuff. Viola works are awesome!
A good idea is to go to the library or on YouTube everyday and grab a cd or listen to something that you have never heard of before. and its okay if you don't like it because then you figure out what you do and don't like. One of the most important things as a composer, in my eyes, is that you don't get stuck listening to "the big names." Because not all the greatest composers have been recognized. 36. Barber, or 37. Roy Harris. hope this helps. always be listening.
