I like Hans' score for Thelma and Louise, but other than that, I've not really looked into anything else he's written.
I cannot believe I forgot the great Ennio Morricone! |

1) Felix Mendelssohn - just listen to the music of "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" he wrote that and "The Wedding March."
2) Kitaro - Japanese composer who does more with synthesizer than can be imagined. 3) Jonathan Lawson - he wrote "RENT" and when I first saw that musical, I thought I would hate it so much but I could not get the songs out of my head. It is said he based it on La Boheme. |

Philip Glass is just brilliant - funnily enough, I first learnt who he was after hearing his music in an episode of Battlestar Galactica, then found out he'd done lots of pieces that were familiar to me (e.g. stuff from The Truman Show).

Nice to have a rare one in the list. I see Phillip's name quite a lot in the music I look at and listen to.
