Aaron Copeland. "Fanfare for the Common Man" is his most famous work, written in 1942.
You'd recognize it as soon as you heard it. It's been used in lots of commercials and movies.

before everything, i admire classical song. yet a brilliant area of the reason of its decline in acceptance is that no somewhat memorable new classical products have been composed for over fifty years. Benjamin Britten's conflict Requiem, which replaced into composed in the 1950's, is the main those days composed piece that has any lifelike hazard of being remembered one hundred fifty years from now. in actuality, very few products in the 50 or so years basically before that are well liked by maximum listeners. virtually all the somewhat alluring classical song replaced into composed between 1700 and 1910. all of us is attracted by using issues that are new, and classical song seems previous hat.

Boundaries between classical, popular and jazz music are becoming blurred. George Gershwin and Scott Joplin are examples of jazz composers who later came to be viewed as classical. Shostakovich paid tribute to jazz with his jazz suite. Film scores are increasingly being acknowledged as classical. Therefore I'd nominate George Gershwin for Rhapsody in Blue, and Porgy and Bess especially. They are unmistakably 'Gershwin' and everyone recognises his music. In previous centuries there was only classical and folk music. Now the music scene is broader. So, the most remembered composer won't be a purely 'classical' composer.

Kurt Weill is great. Did "The Three Penny Opera" in Germany. Came to the USA and composed music like "Lost in the Stars"

I think in 50-100 years, John Williams will be considered a master....
