How many composers can you name? Do you immediately think of the guys who have been dead for 200 or 300 years? Like Mozart or Beethoven? Or do you think of the guys who are creating the fabulous soundtracks for today’s movies? Guys like John Williams and John Barry? You know, the themes for Star Trek and Band of Brothers and Indiana Jones were all written by today’s composers. Don’t dismiss the work of the modern day composers – they are creating some really awesome stuff.
