Yes, if only for his magnificent organ symphony - very prog-ish IMO.

... I can't get to 10 - There are other minimalist and multitonal composers that I probably would like, but those I listen to are enough thank you (you really can have too much minimalism). I enjoy some *pop* classics likeTchaikovsky, Grieg, Beethoven, Mozart etc, but could never honestly list them in a top 10. By rights I should like the heavy stuff like Mahler but have never had the patience to sit down and really listen.

What?
