some bartok, varese, copeland, stravinsky's firebird,

i see the modern composers as "progressive".

Agree 100% kirk esp. The Varese. His piece L'Ameriques is pretty awesome especially when played in concert.

Another piece you might like to check out is Francis Poulenc's "La Voix Humaine". It's one side of a phone conversation between two lovers. You only get to hear "her" side of it but it's written in such a way that you can hear in your minds ear "his" side too. It's a real tragedy and SO sad. If you hear it I'd love to know what you think.

Not for the Moon though so don't fret chaps
