My music group from college went to his 75th birthday concert in the Royal Albert Hall last year, and it was fantastic. the Rome Philharmonic, conducted by the man himsel. they did a huge repertoir of his work. I think the best one was "The Ecstacy of Gold". fantastic stuff.

I'm envious. Morricone scored about 99% of my favorite movies, so I'm a big fan.

hey, I've had this great idea: combine the best of classical and heavy metal into one glorious whole:
THE ROCKQUIEM!!!
part requiem, part heavy metal, all cool.

Therion
If you have p2p software, some tracks to check would be 'Nifelheim', 'Wine of Aluqah', 'To Mega Therion' or 'Three Ships of Berik, pt. 1: Calling to Arms and Fighting the Battle'. Also, if you want a unique take on Abba, their cover of 'Summernight City' kicks muchos butt.
And that's only the most well known and accessible classical/metal fusion. Remember that the european brand of extreme metal has heavy classical influences.

cant give you any names of composers, cus iīm a classical n00b, but I listen to classical from time to time. I donīt like listening to radio much, so mine is tuned only to classical radio...
Kid Amnesiac:
I couldn't name composers if my life depended on it. Only thing I do know is that I love the neo-classical albums of Max Richter. His albums are incredible.
