I came in here to say this. Absolutely gorgeous minimalist works.
Misereatur:
Oh man, I have two really great books about this stuff but they're both in Hebrew.
I guess you should look into La Monte Young's works. Maybe Robert Morris and Jude Donald? I'm not quite familiar with their works, though. Karlheinz Stockhausen is pretty much what you want, I think. Also, I really enjoyed Valentin Silvestrov's Serenade for String Orchestra.
sombrasoubrette:
If you're looking for neo-classical, definitely do some Eric Whitacre. Amazing super-dissonant acapella and things for winds, some of the most gorgeous stuff currently out there. I can hook you up with some recordings.
Beastmouth:
Alvin Lucier's work amazes and astounds me. I Am Sitting in a Room is especially powerful. Also, yes La Monte Young/Dream Syndicate. You can find some of this stuff under Tony Conrad/John Cale's names also, as they played with him.
