I would tag him as "classical;contemporary". A term people use often to describe contemporary classical music is "contemporary music". And I would use "classical; modern" for composers such as Stravinsky or Bartok. I think I would even use "classical; modern" for neoclassical stuff. -- Nostromo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nostromo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6322 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28387 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
